6 Flags, Fiesta Texas!

A few weeks ago, we were able to purchase Fiesta Texas season passes through someone at our Sunday school class, for about a third of their regular price! So yesterday on his day off, Vince took "his girls" to have some fun! It was pretty hot, I got quite the burn on my back and shoulders but we kept Vienna rubbed down with sun screen so she doesn't seem any worse for the wear today.




When we first arrived, we went on a hunt to see if there were any rides that Vienna could go on. After searching high and low, we discovered that everything seemed to require that a child be able to walk at least 3 steps. Haha! Why 3 steps? Who knows. There was only ONE ride that allowed infants...the Merry-Go-Round! Vienna was so curious about the music it played, the movement, the kids squealing. She was so busy taking it all in, that I don't think she showed her excitement until it was time to get off...then if she could talk, I think she'd have said "AGAIN PLEASE!".









The fast rides, the people, the screams, Vienna was so curious about it all. She'd watch the roller coasters go up and down and all around. People watching seems to be hers and my favorite thing to do :) So many different kinds of people, different sorts of families, but all seeming pretty happy about their day of fun in the sun.
Vince and I took turns riding on rides for the most part and then Anthony and Astrud met up with us to watch Vienna so we could ride together a few times. I love hanging out with my best friend...he makes every thing fun. He was so patient when I started freaking out about riding this or that roller coaster and helped me rise above my fear and not let it get the best of me. The last time I was at 6 Flags, I was 12 years old...wasn't afraid of much...something has come over me since then. Haha.






Being gone all day meant no naps for baby girl. She did manage to sleep for a few minutes in daddy's arms. She was such a trouper all day. Not only did she miss out on some sleep but she's also getting 2 more teeth in! Still, she managed to be a happy camper all day! What a sweet baby :)




Cooling down in the water park was Vienna's favorite part of the day. She is so in love with water! We love to watch her splash, and giggle in the waves. She seems fearless in swimming pools. She was able to crawl around in the shallow part but we had to keep a close eye on her, for she kept insisting on going farther and farther in...not realizing it was too deep for her. Finally, at the close of our day, Daddy took us on the tubes that floated down the "river". It was so relaxing, peaceful, and refreshing. At one point, Vince and Vienna's tube went through a little waterfall...at first it frightened Vienna but she quickly toughened up and didn't even cry. Wow, what a brave girl we have :)






By the time we got home, we were sun beaten and tired. What a day! After showers, dinner and a movie, we dragged ourselves off to bed. I think all 3 of us got a great night of sleep!
