A Michigan's Adventure Adventure!

With the summer winding down, Diana's mom and David wanted to get together for one last time. David wanted to do something a bit special, and boy did he! With Alanna and Tavish in town, we were all invited to Michigan's Adventure for a couple days! Yes please! David was splurging on us and paid for two day admissions for all of us as well as hotel rooms so we could stay together for a couple nights. Wow, he really spoils us, huh?
We headed up there nice and early on a Wednesday to meet them up there. We got going on time but everyone else was running a little late, so we decided to stop and get some breakfast. It was a bit of a fiasco, but we got back on the road and made it up to the park right around the time they opened. About 15 minutes later everyone else showed up and we made our way into the park.
Mom and David had rented out a cabana in the waterpark area, so we headed over there to check in first. Along the way we walked past a bunch of different rides and the boys got more and more excited with each step! After we got them settled in, we went back out and finally got a chance to go on the rides! We started with the corkscrew roller coaster and hit each and every ride along the way. David had sprung for the 'fast pass', so we were next in line on almost every single ride we went on! I think the longest wait we had was about 3 minutes. He spoiled us so much! The boys were amazingly brave, riding every single one in the park- better than both of their moms... We went back to check in on Mom and David and got some food to eat, then we went right back out into the park to finish the rest of the rides.
By the end of the day were were all exhausted and shell-shocked by the wooden coasters, so it was time to check in at the hotel. We settled in and ordered some pizza. After that, everyone was ready to call it a night and went to sleep. 
The second day was the water park! Diana wasn't feeling very well and Mom & David had planned a day together in town, so it was just Alanna, the boys, and myself. We had a great time getting wet and doing the water slides! At the end of the day we went back to the hotel and I had to leave to go to work the next day, but the rest of them were able to stay one more night. They took advantage of the pool in the hotel that night and went to to the sand dunes the next day- which they all loved!
Everyone had so much fun- what an amazing way to finish out the summer as a family! Thank you again, David for spoiling us so much and getting a chance to have such a great time together!
