For Memorial Day weekend, Doug, Weston, I and my parents went to south Georgia. There we met up with my in-laws and went to an amusement park/water park.
We thought we'd get into the hotel around midnight, but it was actually around 3am when we got there. :-( It made for an early morning when we needed to get up a few hours later. Surprisingly, Weston was in a great mood all day.
On Saturday, we went on a few rides at the amusement park, but it was 100 degrees and between my pregnant self and Weston's little body, we couldn't stay in that heat too long. We ended up spending the entire afternoon in the water park area. Weston LOVED the lazy river and the kids water area. He didn't want to get out of the water. It's not all that surprising, since his mom and dad are huge water people too. Saturday evening, there was a concert in the park, so we stayed for that. The Band Perry was performing and even though he had swam all day, only had a short 20 minute nap and about 3 hours of sleep the night before, Weston danced through the whole concert, cutting up and entertaining the people around us.
On Sunday, we went back to the park. When you buy a ticket at the amusement park, you get in a consecutive day free, so we figured why not go back?! It was a little cooler on Sunday because Tropical Storm Beryl was heading in our direction. We went on the few more amusement rides and then headed over to the water park area again. We spent the entire time in the lazy river. The only reason we got out of the water is the sky seemed threatening and we were getting cold since there wasn't any sun. After we got dried off and changed into our clothes, the sun came back out (and stayed out). Isn't that the way it always is? Doug's parents and brother left to head back to Florida since they had work on Monday. The rest of us wandered around the park a little longer, but as soon as we put Weston in his stroller, he fell asleep. Doug went on a roller coaster and then we headed towards the gift shop to get Weston a souvenir. When we left the park, we went looking for dinner and spent about 2 hours hunting down a non-chain pizza place. There weren't any open, so we ended up at Pizza Hut. While we were in there, it got very windy and started pouring. Beryl had arrived.
On Monday, we headed back to Alabama. We went through Atlanta and met up with my uncle and aunt. We ate at the Varsity, which is so fattening, but so yummy! We ended up getting home in time to go to our Monday night trivia game, where our team took first place for the 3rd week in a row.
