Ocean Breeze/Busch Gardens

We took Kaden to Ocean Breeze Waterpark and Busch Gardens last week. We thought that he'd be scared of the waterslides but of course he wanted to go down all of them, even the ones he was too little to go down. They had a pretty big one that small kids could go down with a life jacket on, but they had to go on their own rafts. We (dumb us) thought that meant that one of use could at least hold on to Kaden's raft and go down together. Oh no. The lifeguard threw Kaden on his raft and sent him down by himself. I was so freaked out that Kaden was going to be scarred for life. Little did I know we would be going up those tower of stairs at least 20 more times that day! Busch Gardens wasn't quite as much fun for Kaden. Too much walking and the loud roller coaster really freaked him out. At least we all got to spend the day together!

Grandma & Papaw's Visit

Grandma and Papaw Wells came down for a visit this summer. We went to the zoo, the Virginia Aquarium, Chuckie Cheese (couldn't miss that attraction : ), and the oceanfront. Kaden was so excited to see them and very sad to see them leave.

Ashlynn's B-day

Kaden helped Ashlynn celebrate her 3rd birthday at the Jumpin' Monkey.

Beach Trip

We took Kaden to the beach on July 12th. It was the first time that he'd been to the beach in well over a year. We tried to get him to go out into the water but he didn't venture too far. He was much more content on playing in the sand and flying his kite (that his aunt Suzanne got him at Disney) with Daddy.
