wild waves

Chad and Abby went to see Thomas this summer so Jamie and I went to Wild Waves  (in years past we have gone to a Mariner's game).  Let me just say that Wild Waves is not cheap, even when buy tickets at Costco they still stick you for a parking fee (in Federal Way!) a locker fee, and no outside food allowed (lunch fee).  With our less than stellar summer, it was freezing when we got there (at least it felt like it with a wet swimsuit on!).  The wave pool was nice and warm and Jamie had a blast in it.  We tried most every slide and the went back to the wave pool several times.  The river run was still the funnest as I remembered it, Jamie popped under the tube on the last water fall but it was shallow and we were at the end anyway.  After about 3 hours we got dressed and tried out the rides on the other side.  Man, some of them were seriously scary! We had fun and left at dinner time.  We went out to dinner at Dairy Queen as Jamie requested.   It was a great mother-son day to be remembered!
Before we get started.

Our $20 lunch!

Enjoying the rides.




Jamie spins me sick on the teacups.

I don't dare watch the spin video as I may get sick but Syd will love it! Yeah the waterpark in Houston is pricey too. They even charge you for a tube if u wanna go in the river. IF you guys ever come here in the summer the one on Galveston island is really nice, they even let you bring coolers in!
