The Thrills of Silverwood!


This is a Forgotten Post! We went to Silverwood Theme Park on August 1st. The North Idaho Theme Park has a great deal to offer...including a water park. Jody LOVES water parks - unfortunately for us, it was quite chilly! As you can see from the pictures - the weather didn't stop Jody from making a SPLASH. While Gracie and I cuddled together in our hoodie sweatshirts - Jody tried out all the slides and the two giant wave-pools.


I think Jody is having way too much fun on the Elephant Ride. Gracie looks expressionless!


We went to Silverwood with our good friends Briant and Kim. Jody loved the "Aftershock Roller Coaster." It drops you 177 feet backwards at 65 mph! I made the "height-requirement"...(I know...right...some of you are thinking ‘you are really taller than 5 feet?’) But my head still ping-ponged back and forth in between the over-the-shoulder harness...so I think I am still too short! :) I'm an old-school wooden roller-coaster kind of girl....so the Timber Terror was my favorite.

That looks like so much fun! I don't think you're too short :)
I love that you've made collages of some of your photos - how did you do that?

Hey there Taits. It looks like you have been having a lot of fun. I love the old pictures of Brittany. You have the cutest little family. Gracie is getting big. You guys still need to take a trip here on the cheap Allegiant flights.
