KB Day 2

Today was a better day at the festival. My friend Lisa & Sam joined us and Lisa stayed till about 4:30. Sam stayed the rest of the night. It was fun. I did more coasters today than I have I think the last 3 times I went to a theme park! LOL Lets see - first ride we did was the Motocoaster which is funny. It's kind of a lame roller coaster, but it's a bunch of motorcycles so it really was hysterical. Well that and all the jokes about what kind of 'rocket' it was! LOL What did we do next? The vendor tent for a little bit, Tyler split and went to hang out with his girlfriend for the day - what else? Gosh it is sooo hard to recount the whole day. I think we went and got lunch. We had subway subs, and fries which were soo good. Every year we buy a 'commemorative' cup for like $8 and then we get refills all week for $1. The problem is that this year they ran out of the normal cups we buy - won't have new ones till Wed sooo I bought the slightly smaller version and YIKES does it go down quick. I think it's only like 20 oz or so and when it's hot its easy to suck it down fast!

Sam pretty much hung out with me most of the day. We went on several coasters, the motocoaster, the viper, the predator (which HURTS), and then I did the boomerang too which was horrible, and fun all at the same time. Although I did feel like I was going to 'toss my cookies' when I was done... I was ok after a couple tylenol and sips of my lemonade. We saw the really awesome Cirque Neuvaux (sp?) - and then we ran over to see Skillet, but since KB didn't pre-think it and put them on the park stage (they are pretty big rockers) it was SOOOO PACKED. I mean not only standing room only - it was backed way up to the vendor tents which is crazy. I think that more than 1/2 the park was there! Tyler made his way up front, but didn't stay long. I got some great pics of the kids, and then Mary Beth and I headed over to see Third day. It was fabulous! OH! I forgot to mention we did stop at the Worship Tent and saw Vicky Beeching, who I am going to head right over to Myspace to add as a friend, and put one of her songs on my page. She was fabulous!

We did hit the wave pool for a while, but we didn't have our suits so we just got wet up to our shorts and then hung out there for a while. It was a long day on my feet, and I've got a bit of a blister to show for it. I'm probably going to wear sneakers tomorrow to try and baby it a bit, but heck it's been a good week so far! LOL

Now I am just catching up this post so I can download it in my head, download the pics and head off to bed. I'm watching Nashville star, and wow. I knew Shawn Mayer would go - really glad Melissa is in the final running. My poor dog. She is soo lonely - now she's trying to play and we need to get to bed. I think next year I am REALLY going to look into kenneling her for the 4 days so that she can get her play time and all that and I don't have to feel sooo guilty coming home at 1am and then getting up and leaving at 9am again!

Until next time!
