America's Roller Coast

This past weekend Dave and I went to Cedar Point with my sister Sara and her husband Chris. We had a blast! The weather was perfect (except for a thirty-minute down-pour) and the lines weren't too long. It was so refreshing to spend a weekend focused on one thing... having FUN! I missed the kids of course, but I must admit, it was nice to take off my "mommy hat" for a couple days and just enjoy being the me I was before having kids.

I was terrified to ride the Top Thrill Dragster. Can you believe that coaster doesn't always make it over the hill? Crazy! But I took the plunge (the 423 foot plunge), and I'm so glad I did! Sara and I rode together, while Dave and Chris waited to ride it in the front seat. I was so proud, I was tempted to buy a T-shirt that said "I survived the Top Thrill Dragster!"

Here's a picture of Dave and I after we survived the Power Tower.

 

A huge thank-you to Aunt Ju-Ju, Grandpa and Grandma Pohler, and Grandpa and Grandma Z for taking such good care of Jackson and Haley. Something tells me they were too busy having fun to miss mom and dad.

Ride on!
