Amusement Park

This past weekend we went to the Portland Police company picnic. It was located at a small amusement park called Oaks Park. The park has all the normal rides as you would expect. Silly me thinking Jaden was old enough to actually enjoy the rides. As you will see from the before and after pics, she did not think it was very funny to put her on the rides. Although Nana Nancy and I thought it was pretty cute. We'll try again next year....



This was the first ride, the cars just go in a circle. Another family was nice enough to let Jaden sit with them, as I was not allowed to go on it. Notice how calm she looks....



Now notice her right hand cluched in a death grip holding onto the little girl next to her. She didnt cry but she sure glared a lot at us as she went round and round.




Here she is with Nana on the carousel ride. Very simple ride, you would think, up and down, not too fast. Did my little princess like it you ask?


Oh certainly not! Here she is about one minute after the ride started. I however got to ride a very colorful frog in front of her :)

In the end, the ride she enjoyed was the train that went around the park. It was a good experience for us all, exhausting, but good. I can't wait until she is a little older to actually enjoy them.
