Worlds of fun at Worlds of Fun
We took Pierce and Anna to the local amusement park, Worlds of Fun. This is Anna’s second time there and Pierce’s 3rd. We had a gorgeous day and got to the park right when it opened. The park is decorated for Halloween, so there are skeletons and monsters everywhere.
Of course we had a blast. There are so many rides geared for small children we ran out of day before we ran out of rides. I think the biggest hit with Pierce and Anna was the Snoopy Bi-Planes. Of course Pierce was nuts for all the car rides and Anna and Pierce were both huge fans of the roller coaster.
The park has an area set up for small kids called “Camp Snoopy”. Both kids had a chance to see Snoopy, Charlie Brown, and Linus (along with a few other characters who have already faded from my mind). Anna’s fixated on all things fuzzy, so Snoopy was her hand's down favorite. She practically mugged him she hugged him so hard. This year she gave him a kiss on the nose too.
On leaving the park we drove straight to Nora’s folks house for my belated Birthday dinner. BBQ ribs, my favorite. Our kids ran around in the backyard with their cousins while we adults all got to catch up. Very nice. I got a variety of gift cards for my favorite type of store: electronics. So I’ll be paying some visits to Best Buy and Microcenter (a computer store) very soon. Yeah baby!
