Boon Docks

 
In October, we were thrilled to have the chance to join my little sisters in celebrating their 12th and 14th birthday.  We met halfway and spent the day at Boon Docks.  None of us had ever been there before and really did not know what to expect.
 Right away we were impressed.  It was very clean and orderly and we were met right away by customer service and they helped us pick the package that was best for our family.  The restaurant area was nice too, and we enjoyed a delicious lunch and birthday cupcakes.
 Chiggie drove for the very first time, and true to her nature she was terribly nervous.  Here she is not sure she wants to keep going.  By the end of the day she was unstoppable.  I am really proud of her that she is branching out the way she is.  There was a time when we couldn't even get her to try new things at all.
 Buster on the other hand, needed no persuasion at all before he hopped behind the wheel.  He was so cute and would cover up his little face when he didn't know what to do.
 Midge surprised us by belting up and taking the wheel too.  It was especially humorous when she rear ended another kid full speed when they were lining up!
Tea and Boo, particularly enjoyed the bumper boats.  We were so happy that this attraction is open year around.  Some of the kids had never been on bumper boats before.  They go pretty soaked, but dried off quickly in the sun.

They also bowled, played laser tag, climbed on the indoor play place, and enjoyed the huge arcade.  We spent over 8 hours there and the kids were exhausted on the ride home.  It was a very fun day and I was so happy to see some of our extended family after almost 3 months.
