Knott's Berry Farms


I love teacher work days that fall on Conference (read: only legal vacation from official Primary duties) Weekend.



We took advantage of our Friday off school when it isn't a National Holiday to take a much needed trip to Southern California and get us some amusement park time.




We couldn't have had a better day. Seriously. Last time we went, the crowds were horrific and Clay got a sunburn through his pants (He opted to just go ahead and wear shorts and sunscreen so he didn't have to reapply under jeans).



This time, there were no lines, AT ALL. And, Neve just passed the 48 inch mark, so she could ride all but two rides in the park. The weather was perfect and it was fantastic.



We rode ride after ride after ride, most of the time not even getting off in between. Neve was a superstar and rode every ride she was tall enough for. Even showed her sister up by riding Boomerang! Woohoo. This is the way amusement parks days should go. Soundtrack for the day? Three darling little girl's screams. Pure joy.
