Busch Gardens!

Spring Break started today!  Our half day got switched to a full day off (unused snow days) and so we started our spring break fun early!  We took the family to Busch Gardens.  I was able to get free preschool annual passes for Madeline and Lilah (Richmond friends, I think they are still available for kids 5 and under!).  Right now the fun pass is the same price as a day pass - so we can go back as many times as we want until September!  On Friday we got up, packed our lunch, and headed to Williamsburg.  We had a blast!  We spent some time at the 'kids parks', Mike went on an adult roller coaster and he took Anna Elise and Calvin on a 'medium' roller coaster.  Mike made me take Anna Elise and Calvin on that big drop ride - we all survived!  We went to Pizza Hut for dinner and then home to bed!  What a fun day!

 Lilah's first roller coaster.  She looks too little to be going on a roller coaster!

 There we are!  Mike and Celeste had to sit this one out.  About half way through I thought 'Wow, this is a pretty good roller coaster", I glanced down at Lilah and her face was frozen into pure terror.  I could tell she wasn't breathing, but she said she liked it and went again!

 Celeste ate Pirate Booty during lunch.  She basically got whatever she wanted, she'd been sick earlier this week and was not real happy today.  We carried her for most of the day.

A little horse ride near the Clydesdales.  The kids were so excited to pet a real horse and Celeste seemed mesmerized.  They are so big!
