Funland

The first night at Funland wasn't so Fun. Evan was fighting to keep his eyelids open and wasn't tolerating much of anything. Mike and I were disappointed and put Evan to bed immediately when we walked back to the hotel, but the second night made up for everything! He gave us huge smiles, waved at us from the rides (and he waved at other families too... he thought they were there waving at him).

Here's the first night. Ho hum. Riding with mom and dad is booooooring.





He had more fun with the scary clown.


So tired.


Here's the second night. We went with Mike's coworker Rene, his wife Jennifer and 2 kiddies. Then Mike's other coworker Sheryl and her husband Bill met us.

This is the VERY first time Evan went on a ride by himself. Here he is on the boats,
He also made friends with a the ride attendant and she would wave to him as he skimmed by. This is a big step for us...



This was a little ferris wheel. Much too scary for Evan to go on alone.



And the fire engines... Evan liked steering the back and front at the same time.


Now Mike and I are getting a bit braver. We let Evan go on the cars 3 times! These things actually moved very fast. See his hair flying in the breeze?



Okay. Now we're insane. Neither of us had any idea that this ride spun fast, then lifted into the air... at least a couple of feet above our heads. We were gritting our teeth through this one, but Evan obviously loved it.




Sheryl and Bill hung out with us too. Evan gave them hi fives and pumped his fists after each ride.
