Oh Yeah...Fun Land Baby!

We are participating in the Idaho Falls Reading Program. Quinn earned 2 coupons for a free ride at Fun Land In Tautphaus Park. We redeemed our coupons yesterday which I am glad because we never got a chance to use them last year before they expired.
Quinn was super excited for the plane ride.  He loved every minute of being inside this fuel jetted ROARING plane!  He was super glad Paxton was going to join him for the ride too.  At first Paxton thought it was a great idea too.
Here Paxton definitely does not know what to think of it.  He's trying to be a trooper.
Here he likes the speed and thinks it is fun.


Now he hates it. The speed suddenly changed and is going way too fast. His giggles have now turned into screams.  I am on the side trying not to chuckle because I think it is so cute.  I feel bad for him so I asked the guy to stop the ride.  I don't think he's ever been happier to see Mom and Dad.  I didn't get any pictures of him freaking out since I was trying to calm him down. 
 
Quinn went alone and loved the ride.  Right when he got off he asked if he could go again.  We persuaded him to go on the merry-go-round.
Quinn is so excited and pumped.  He can hardly wait for the ride to start.  I think once it starts it's not what he thought it would be fun.  He still enjoyed it.

We did let him go on the airplane ride again and this time he got brave.  He would mimic our actions. 

Paxton also hated this ride. He didn't even like to just sit on it.   I would've sat with him on the horse but the guy wouldn't let me.  He barely let me on the ride without a ticket.  He decided it would be okay since there was not a soul around other than us. 
 
I had to take him off the horse and sit with him on the bench.  He didn't mind that.  He just sat on my lap.  Then, he was able to relax and enjoy the ride. 
 
It was a good day to be together.  The best part was the Mike was able to join us too.  I love days like this and wish they could last forever.
 
Afterward, we went to Artic Circle for an ice cream.  That made our day complete.
