Spring Eggstravaganza

Turns out the Saturday before Easter, Santee Lakes req park has a festival with egg hunts, rides and all kinds of fun. Caden was pretty excited so I went straight to the ticket line to stock up on tickets. As I was there I took a look at the menu. Some highlights:

Big slide 3 tix, he should like that.
Blow up jumping castle 2 tix, sounds fun.
Bumper cars 5 tix, prolly not old enough.
Pony rides 5 tix, oh that's right up his alley.
Elephant rides 4 tix, wow no foolin, this I have to see.

So I took a roll of tickets and we headed out for an elephant adventure. Apparently my imagination got the best of me.


I'd have to say the big slide was the day's favorite. But a close second was the pony ride. Our lil cowpoke was about as excited as could be.


Maybe it was spending the day at the rodeo last week, but as soon as the ponies started walking, Cowboy Cade put his hand up and was trying to make the whistle. When the guy running the ride stopped the ponies, he asked Caden if he make the whistle, lol.
