Marc was very excited to go back to Six Flags. It has been 2 years since we have been there. Samantha got to experience her first amusement park ride. It was a ride on the Mystery Machine from Scooby-Doo in the kids area.
Marc enjoyed seeing all of the characters. When he went to see Daffy Duck, Daffy took his hat and put it on his own head. Marc enjoyed that!
Marc has really gotten into Scooby-Doo lately, so he was thrilled when we found Shaggy in the park!
We were able to find a few rides that Samantha was able to go on. She did a couple in the kids area, the train ride, the carousel (her first one by the way) and the space needle.She really enjoyed the carousel, but it was too long for her attention span. She got really wiggly about half-way through the ride.
Both Marc and Samantha enjoyed the space needle ride. Marc had fun playing eye-spy and finding rides he had already been on. Samantha enjoyed sitting on the seat (somewhere other than her stroller) for awhile, and then got wiggly, again, so we let her stand up and look out the window.
Marc wasn't tall enough to ride any of the roller coasters last year, but he is this year. We call him "our little thrill junkie" so we decided that we would try an old-fashion wooden roller coaster. It was called the Viper. Daddy Marc is not a huge fan of roller coaster and I enjoy them so I got to take little Marc on it. We stood in line for about 30 minutes. When we got into our "car" I got him buckled and the lap bar down. I sat with my arm around him, hugging him to my body to make sure he was safe and didn't go anywhere (I was being paranoid). We went down the 1st of about 9 hills, and I hear next to me "Mom, I don't like this!". All I could do was squeeze him tighter and talk to him as we were going the rest of the ride. I swear he told me about half-way through the ride that he was going to throw up. He says he didn't say that, but I swear he did. I will always remember his first ride on a roller coaster!
After a full day of rides, food, and fun, we settled down to watch the evening show and following parade. 
They had about 5 of the characters and a bunch of singers/dancers singing some songs and all dancing around. It was at night so they had a bunch of cool colored lights lighting up the stage. After the show there was a parade. Again, since it was at night, each float had a character and lots of cool looking lights.We arrived at the park when it opened at 10:00am and left the park when it closed at 10:00pm. We wiped the kids out!
