Our day was anything but normal yesterday. Three of the five of us were up at the crack of dawn, getting ready for another dance competition, this time at Lagoon. The plan was for it to just be Cait and I and we would go, do the dance and then go do some shopping. As you all know it rained like crazy yesterday and that was not our idea of fun. But round about 7:30 when I finally got Cait up, David decided to go with us. He figured there would be no lines and very few people because of the rain. His idea of fun. So we scrambled to get everyone ready instead of just two of us, took Cora to my sister, then headed off into the rain. We got to Lagoon at 9:30, Cait didn't dance until 11:30 (she was fabulous as usual). It was raining the entire time we were sitting there, then when she was done and we decided to go ride rides it was still raining and I think even harder. Stupid me, the first ride Cait and I went on was a water ride (I didn't know, cut me some slack). So needless to say we were soaked. It continued to rain until about 1:30. We were on our way out, we were going to just go through the haunted house, and the sun came out and the rain stopped, The kids all of a sudden had renewed energy and I still had blue lips, but we went on one ride after the other. We were there until 4:30. Soaked to the bone, but having the time of our lives. It was so much fun, even Dawson was loving it (we thought he would just chicken out). Plus since we decided to stay and play in the rain, we get to go back to Lagoon again in May for free. Yeah. Dave and I will probably use it as a date day, so we can ride better rides then the Ladybug drop. It was great. Because we were soaked and my hands were constantly wet I only took a few pics after the rain stopped.
My favorite quote from Dawson yesterday was when we were getting on the Dino Drop and this ride was right next to it, he just wanted to ride the space ships, so he kind of threw a fit. While we were sitting in the drop before it started to go, I asked him why he threw a fit and he told me "I was just acting like a Decepticon." (the bad transformers).
This was Dawson's second favorite ride, he could control if the plane went up or down, he loved it.

You are SUCH a nice mommy to stay and play when you were wet and cold! Also, thanks for being a great nursery teacher.
