Today was a fun, busy day. Some of us headed out to Silver Dollar City, despite the storms that loomed in the forecast. As Lloyd will attest to, rainy days are great days to go to theme parks. Attendance is low, so you don’t have to wait as long to go on rides. However, they do shut down rides when lightning is near, so we had to do a little more waiting than we liked. No trouble – there was plenty to keep us occupied.
Around mid-afternoon, half of the SDC party decided to cut loose and go back, but Lloyd, Mark, Rachel and Matthew stayed and played. Lloyd said they got to ride stuff over and over because the park was so empty.
Back here, we met up with Aunt Marcy and Uncle Rich! (Marcy is my mom’s sister.) How awesome that we are all together! Today was also Rachel’s birthday, so my dad made his delicious homemade ice cream. It was soooooooo good.
Did I mention that we’re living like kings?
