Super Duper Day!

We got up and milled around a little this morning, not knowing exactly what to do. All of the sudden it hit us…Indiana Beach! We showered & dressed in record time and hit the road towards Monticello. It was a long trip, but worth the wait.

We crossed the huge suspension bridge and started with games right away where I won a bracelet and a sticky, stretchy hand thingy. We walked around and took in all the sites of rides, games, food, and beach-goers wearing some less-than-attractive tank tops & beach wear. I rode the kid sized bumper boats first. Then, we played a few more games and then hit Kiddieland where, after just a few minutes of apprehension, I was addicted to the cool rides. I rode the carousel, boats, cars, firetruck, other cars, etc. Up next was a ride on Indiana’s largest paddle-driven boat, the Shafer Queen. I loved the wind in my hair and the splash of the water. More games, more tickets, and more prizes…then we celebrated with an Elephant Ear. It had been a full day, and we had been up and down the whole boardwalk more than a few times, so we started for home.

I woke up from a little nap to take a pit stop at Gigi & Poppa’s house, where we found Mesa & C-Lo playing in the living room. Of course, I perked right back up and was running at 100% while I played with one of my best friends. We played kitchen, workshop, ate dinner, watered flowers, played on the swing set, watched Toy Story, took a bath, and had a nighttime snack before we had to say goodbye. I managed to stay awake all the way home, but hit the pillow pretty hard (at 9:30!) once settled down.

Here are the pictures from my Super Duper Day!
