Lagoon Family Fun!


Hooray!! Mike bought a new camera (please don't ask about the sudden and untimely death of the previous one, which was also new...). The good news is that it came just in time for our big family Lagoon trip. (sans Jo and Chris and the kiddies, and their pet chipmunk).

Liseanne, You are HAWT, Sister! =)
The only bad thing about having the Florida Nixons come is when we have to say bood-bye. Caleb is trying very hard not to cry in this picture.Those tears are only seconds away...Even little Emma was heartbroken to see them go.


Our Favorite Rides:
Mike: TBA. Not answering his texts.
Melinda: The Samurai
Morgan: Wicked
Madison: Wicked and The Samurai
Caleb: Wicked
Emma: The Merry-Go-Round
Cam: "Choo choo!"

What fun pictures! Looks like you had a blast at Lagoon - and well worth the work to get the passes! Your family is growing up so fast! Cute pictures & adorable kids - hate the goodbyes though. We try to act tough but I always want to break down & just cry also! Miss you - Lisa

I don't even know any of those rides that you mentioned. What a good day (not GREAT because we weren't there.) You MUST crop out the back ground and blow up the picture of Emma and Haylee. TOO cute!!

p.s. kids found another chipmunk!!

What great pictures! I almost started crying all over again looking at the sad good-bye pictures. I was doing fine that day saying good-bye until I said good-bye to Emma. We were talking about how she should come visit us and then she just threw her arms around my neck and said, "I love you!" I lost it then! She is so sweet and we miss your kids immensley! (oh, and you and Mike too! :))

I got all teary eyed seeing the goodbye pic too. Looks like you guys had a great time! I love that first picture!

Fun photos to look at. It was fun running into you guys at Lagoona Beach! I'm a little concerned about the untimely death of your camera. We haven't had great luck either lately. Maybe it's that great smell in the air.

So FUN! It's been a few years since we've been to Lagoon, so we finally broke down and took Boston. It was so much fun...we definitely need to go again! Cute pictures!
