Last month we were able to spend a few days in California with Andy (Matt's bro) and his wife Lauren. We went to the Aquarium of the Pacific which Stratton loved. They had an entire tank full of Nemos and he just sat and yelled "fish! Nemo!" We also went to Knott's Berry Farm. For those of you that don't know, Knott's is one of California's most under-appreciated theme parks. It is much MUCH cheaper than the other big name parks in CA and there's hardly ever any lines. We used to go there every Disney Land trip growing up so it has lots of fun family memories for me. It has a great kids area with miniature roller coasters, rides, and activities that were perfect even for kids as young as Stratton. It also has lots of great roller coasters/rides for us big kids plus the usual shops, shows, and theme park features. So there's my plug for good ol' Knott's. Anyways, this is a picture we bought of us on the log ride. Stratton has a really flighty stomach (i posted previously about how much he hates the swings). So, even though he didn't cry, I think he face says exactly how he feels about thrill rides...(if you click on the pic it should zoom in so you can see better) Monday, June 15, 2009

Lauren and Stratton's faces have about the same expression. Looks so fun! I'm jealous.
That is a great pic! It looks way fun! Can't wait to see you guys in August!
What a cute pic of Stratton! I have to give him props for even going on the ride. The scariest ride Katelyn will do is the teacups at Disneyland...and even then, she'll only ride it if the teacup is PINK!
I love Knotts Berry Farms! That picture is priceless of all of you! Super fun!
Amy you have the same expression on your face as you did when you were six! That big fake grin thats trying to hide the fact that you secretly think you'll die for sure, no matter how tight dad or Matt hold you!
I was thinking the same thing as Melissa except dad was holding your arms up for you. Thanks for sharing such a fun picture. We should all go back soon.
he he that picture is adorable. I've heard of Knott's and it seems like a great place!
Love this pic! Remember that time at knots when emily was too short to ride the boomerang, and she hid under a bench enraged for like the rest of the day. I think that was also the trip where we left melissa on our way back to idaho. Ah good times.
Such a fun picture! Glad you got to go do that!
Haha!! I love it! Shaun wants to know how you even got him on the ride in the first place. Don't they have height restrictions or did you guys just sneak him on? :)
fun times i love the picture we should do it again!
good points and the details are more specific than somewhere else, thanks.
