Bryan and I celebrated our 12th wedding anniversary this weekend by spending a little time at the Kemah Boardwalk and having dinner at the Aquarium Restaurant. After dinner, we strolled around, listening to the live band, and watching the people enjoying the games and rides.
I recalled that Cameron had a field trip here last summer with her summer daycare, and she told me that she rode a big ride. Bryan and I looked around and tried to figure out what she had ridden. We quickly eliminated the new rides, added this winter. Hmm... not the carousel, not the train, not the swinging upside-down boat, not the upside down inverter... must have been either the submarine thing or the swings.
When we picked them up from "Kids Night Out", we asked one of the child care workers (who took them on the field trip) and Cameron together. SHE RODE THE INVERTER!! My (then) seven year old daughter rode an amusement park ride that I would never have allowed her to go on. She also rode the swings.
We didn't know whether to be impressed as all heck (Goodness knows that neither one of us could be paid to go on that thing) or furious that she went on it without our permission. (She met the height requirement.) Of course, now she wants to go on the big roller coaster that just opened - the Boardwalk Bullet.
