2010 Penrose Family Reunion and Lagoon!

The Great Penrose Reunion was held at Snowbird Ski Resort this year, July 5-8. It is so beautiful up there in the summer and there is lots to do. We had fun going on hikes, swimming, bbq-ing, playing in the arcade/game room (it got a little competitive while playing air hockey; pucks flying everywhere), sharing talents, and catching up on each others lives. We had a BLAST and can't wait for the next reunion.

The last day of the reunion, we decided to go to...
LAGOON

Diesl's first ride was with Adam on the airplanes. BIG MiStAkE! Adam was done for after this ride. Both he and Diesl looked like they were going to vomit while on it but Diesl was still up for more rides. Adam....well, not so much.

Pretty much all the kids rides consisted of constent circular motions but I actually did ok. I really wanted Diesl to have a good time so I'm glad that was the case.

After a while, we decided that the train ride sounded nice. It was so hot and humid this day, I about died (and yes we do live in St. George where temps. reach 116 in the summer, but the mixture of heat and humidity that day just about did me in) Diesl liked seeing the animals and as for the rest of us, we just liked being able to SIT DOWN!

Diesl and his cousin Cade, enjoyed their last ride together in the old Ford. (p.s. we don't know the Lagoon employee waving in our sons picture but o well)

This was our only stroller we had cuz we didn't want to pay the ridiculous $ to rent one. Even with a kinked neck and uncomfortable looking sleep positon, Addison still took her regular naps and even kept hold of her bink in the process. Talented, I know!
Diesl Loved, Loved, Loved Lagoon and we are so glad cuz that's what we were going for. Grandpa P took him on one of the haunted mansion rides and he didn't love it but at least he didn't come out crying. Adam and I did get to go on one ride together before leaving and it was....WICKED!
