Silverwood

Silverwood here we come! I mean CAME! That's right, we hit the biggest amusement park in the region with our kids and our good friends Annette and Jacob Rose and children. 

The kids had a lot of fun getting warmed up on all of the kiddie rides.

Then it was off to Coaster Alley. We had a blast riding all of the biggest and best coasters and thrill rides. 

The Newest roller coaster is called Aftershock. This one that takes you up 20 stories high, dangles you face down for a few seconds and then drops you into a free fall straight to your death. I mean.....drops you until you think you are about to die, when suddenly it whisks you into a double loop twisty thingy at mach 5 speed. Then rockets you back up the same 20 stories and suspends you in air with your back to the ground this time around. And of course, drops you back down the death drop (backwards this time), only to take you all the way through the ride backwards this time. YEAH WE DID IT! A couple times in fact. And even our 5 year old wanted more of it. Rock On Hailey!!

We got a little wet on a few of the rides as well.

And we made sure to hit the kids section of Boulder Beach, the water park there. 

With train rides consisting of cowboys and train robbers, magicians at the pizza parlor, and an ice skating show we were non-stop having fun this whole weekend. 

The Roses hooked us up with a really cool condo that we would love to stay at again. Especially if we could stay longer to enjoy the pool, golf course, racket ball courts, and more. 

By the time we were driving home, we were worn out. 2 full days at an amusement park can take it's toll. But we enjoyed every minute of it and would totally do it again.
