Go, Go, GO!


What a non-stop weekend it was! Took advantage of Nash and Vince being away and spent the entire weekend with Mas! It is so nice doing things just the two of us. Our first adventure was Saturday at Six Flags Over Georgia, he is finally tall enough to ride a good amount of the rides and he has been talking about going there for the longest time so decided it was finally time to find out just how brave he was!



Boy oh boy was he a trooper! He was up to ride anything…even the ones that he was still too short for! It was so funny, I would let him watch a ride first then ask him if he wanted to ride it and he would always say “that looks cool, but fast! It’s okay though I’m not scared!” We could not have asked for better weather either, it was just so awesome! Park was crowded since Fright Fest was also going on but it gave him the excuse to wear his pirate costume to the park!

The Mind Bender!

There was only one ride that he was not so thrilled about when we got off [The Mind Bender], but with three loops and a decent drop he held his own and he didn’t cry, I was impressed. After dark when all the ghouls and zombies started coming out I could tell that he was starting to get a little uneasy. I asked him if he was scared and he said “No, they are just people in masks and make-up but I’m kind of tired, I think we should go home now.” Haha…



Next up on our fun filled weekend together was Disney on Ice in Atlanta! He’s  got a thing for Mickey and Minnie, he still talks about when we took him to Disney World a couple of years ago [wow…seems like just yesterday]. We went with a good friend and her daughter who is the same age as Mas, so he had some company while he enjoyed the show! Took the kids to have Mexican for lunch [since it’s their favorite and the day was all about them] and then we loaded up the “mom van” and headed to Atlanta. Of course, I HAD to buy Mas a Mickey Mouse light up, spin, vibrate, music making thingy so he could wave it in the dark during the show <--- what’s a show without one of those? Definitely caught him dancing a few times and there were moments when he climbed on my lap to snuggle during the show…best part of the WHOLE weekend was on the ride home Sunday night. He said “Mommy, thank you for Six Flags Over Georgia and Disney show. I love you. Oh and next time Daddy and Nash are in Ohio we’re gonna go back to Six Flag and fight those zombies we saw, right?” Right!
