A Day At Kings Dominion

Last Friday, we spent the day at Kings Dominion. We've been trying to plan a day for weeks and we all ended up being able to go on my dad (Pop Pop)'s birthday which was perfect.


As soon as we arrived, I spotted Dora & Danny took Sadie over to say hello. She was super excited to see her, but very freaked out at the same time! She's never been a fan of large characters!




We spent a great deal of time in the kiddie area riding all of the cars & airplanes. Their favorite was Yogi's Cave now named Treasure Cave. They went through twice and simply loved the crooked floor! It's so fun to see my girls enjoy something that I too enjoyed as a child.



















Another favorite was riding the cars on the Toonpike. It was hilarious to watch them take driving so seriously. Elise said she learned how to drive from watching mom...lol! I was a little worried about Sadie crashing into someone else, but she did great!















This year, Anabelle & Elise were over 48" so they were able to ride some roller coasters!!! We started them out on the Rebel Yell which got mixed reviews. Elise didn't like the big hill, but the others were okay and Anabelle didn't like the tunnel. Here's Anabelle and her big smile after riding it with my dad.
Here's Sadie & Danny getting ready to ride the Scooby Doo! Sadie LOVED the small roller coasters. Every time I saw her ride, she had her hands up! You can see her in the back car in the picture below.









Other favorites were the Avalanche, Scooby's Haunted Mansion, the Log Flume, and Waterworks. We got there when they opened and stayed almost until they closed. When we got home, Sadie was asleep and the older girls were pretty close to it. As much as we wanted to just put them to bed, we had to put them in the shower first. I couldn't ignore the black feet & slimy skin...yuck-o! By the way...it's really not fun nor is it easy to bathe three exhausted kids in one shower at the same time...but we did it :0).
