Today the kids and I went to The Gardens at Thanksgiving Point with my sisters, thier kids, and my parents. Today was $2 Tuesday so we thought it would be the perfect opportunity to take all of the kids without spending a fortune ~ WRONG!!! It seems the whole world had the same idea! My parents were the first ones to get there and stood in the entrance line for almost a half hour! Crazy, the things grandparents will do! Despite feeling like we were in an overcrowded zoo, I think all in all everyone had a pretty good time! Of course all the kids had to soak themselves in the water at the ark, except for Matt and Jackson, they are simply too cool for such childish games!!!

Unfortunately, I ran out of room on my memory card so I didn't get very many pictures! I wish I could have gotten pictures of the big waterfall and the kids rolling down the huge grassy hills with Aunt Katie, it looked kind of fun, I might have to try it next time!

I did get one picture of all of the kids together, definitely not the best picture, but hey it has everyone in it!

Definitely a fun day, but next time I think I'll fork out the money for regular price admission and enjoy without the crowds!!!
