Silverwood

The title of the post tells it all....Silverwood!

The boys were so excited, as were the adults, to spend a day at Silverwood.  Cannon had been before with Karin and I two years ago. We were looking forward to going back, this time with Colson and Grandpa & Grandma Anderson.

We arrived about 30 minutes before the park opened (11:00 am) and didn't pull out of the parking lot until 9:10 pm!  We were all tired, but the day went by fast.

Get ready...there are a ton of pictures!

The three of us are getting ready to ride the roller coaster Tremors.  It's a pretty intense coaster that hits 60+ mph.  Cannon was a trooper, but said he didn't want to do it again!



A Dumbo ride with Colson!  He loved all of the kids rides and enjoyed how the elephant went up and down.

 The Log Ride!  We waited about 45 minutes for this ride.  Booo!  It was fun and the kids LOVED it.

Another fun 'kid' ride that the boys enjoyed.  It was nice they could do many of them together.

Off to the water park.  It was packed!  Cannon immediately went to play in the HUGE kid area.  He climbed and explored and finally went down the water slide!

Another 'hit' at the water park was the wave pool.  Cannon spent most of his time here.  He loved the waves and was in the water forever!  Colson liked being in the water, but was more cautious.  

Back at the park after leaving the water park, we hit the train and had fun on the 30 minute ride.


This is a ride Cannon really wanted to go on.  It was very popular and they waited in line for a LONG time.  Cannon rode with Grandma Kathy and Colson rode with Colson.  They loved squirting water at others and tried to stay dry themselves.  Grandma got the most wet!


Another fun little kid roller coaster ride.  The boys rode this ride a few times.

We hit almost all of the kid rides and it was nice that the lines for them weren't too long.  I love how the boys are excited for all the rides.  They had so much fun!

We watched a magic/illusion show in the evening.  The boys shared a caramel apple and it was funny to watch them try and eat the apple at the same time!  (It was very good!)

We had caramel apple and ice cream for dinner!  This cup of ice cream was a "single scoop" and it was HUGE!  Cannon, Colson and I shared this and we couldn't finish it!  But what we did eat was so yummy!  (Cotton candy on the bottom, chocolate chip mint in the middle and cookie dough on top!)

This was another ride that Cannon was intrigued with and finally got in line for it.  Grandpa did it with him.  It was right up Cannon's alley with the controls and they all got to bump into each other!

$1.00 for 18 shots.  Colson really wanted to try this and he worked hard to shoot the red lights. Cannon also got in on the action.


Our final ride of the night, right as the park was closing.

Lots and lots of fun.  Lots of great memories.
Enjoying every moment.
