Enchanted Forest

Saturday we went to this little amusement park called Enchanted Forest. This place is awesome specially if you come to realize that Roger, the founder of the park, made every attraction himself!! It took him well over 10 years to build it!

We got there around noon. We went to Pinocchio's house first and then to this little restaurant where they had a water show, and as soon as we got in the show was over! Perfect timing, huh!?

Our first ride was a super colorful train. Even J joined us!! There was a castle and McDonald's farm and mushrooms and I think there was a little creek around the train tracks...I can't remember! There was this button that if you pressed the old McDonald's song would play. J loved it so much that he kept pressing the button! He loved the ride!

there was this other attraction called Bumper Boats. A wanted to play so bad that he patiently waited in line for a boat to come available!

He waited and he would take about it. When it was his turn, boy freaked out! He cried his heart out and didn't want to have any of it! So, off we went to the Western town!

All the doors were crooked and it looked so cool!! There was a dentist office with a sign saying: "If it doesn't fit, we FORCE it!!" Ouch!! And the dentist was drilling inside a guys mouth!! I am so happy dentistry has come a long way and that I have good teeth...no cavities!! Phew...imagine having a guy drill your mouth with no medicine! Yikes...

J decided to practice his walking, but the road was so steep Grandma had to help him out!! This boy loves walking! And he is finally crawling!!

Simply adorable! And please do check those chompers out! His two top teeth are huge! One of those is as big as his two bottom teeth!! And he loves to grind them which gets him in trouble but he doesn't care!!

At the park they also have this Story wing where you can find Miss Muffet, Snow White, Jack and Jill, Hansel and Gretel, and so many more...We stopped to take a photo of...

Humpty Dumpty!!

Then it was my turn to go on a 'ride' with A. We went into a show and the whole idea was to slide down...together but...

A was seriously not him self that day...he held on to the rail and on my attempt to have him hold my hand I slid down all by my self while he cried at the top!! I think it was all so overwhelming for him. Disney is going to have to wait for at least 2-3 more years!

On our way back home we stopped at Elmer's for dinner...and while on the road I snapped this photo...Always wanted to do it! Hehehe

I also got flashed by two 65+ couple! This man and his wife were walking to their house completely naked!! the guy then turns around and he flashed me! Seriously people, I did not need to see that!!

Cannon Beach

PHOTO OVERLOAD!

Every time we go to Cannon Beach we start the trip with lunch:

...and this is what happens when you suck on a lemon!

I didn't get a good look of Jake's face :(

Just because he is a cutie...

Don't ask. We have no clue what was going on with the foot! We would stick his right foot out as soon as I started pushing the stroller! See! I told you Jake was a goof ball!

Look at the pout!

So this is what this little boy looked before this:

Starting with little boy falling over and ened all covered in sand!

Then he thought the sand would make a good and crunchy snack!

Even the nosed got all sandy...

Both the boys. So serious...

Ty covered his legs in sand and Jake did not care at all!! He even helped a little!

And this was bound to happen....oh well, brothers!

Surprisingly enough, Jake did not care at all!

This was precious! Ty took Alexander to play with the water! He was a bit scared at first but then had a blast until this happened:

...boy fell backwards and got rolled over by a wave!!

At first he wasn't happy with being all wet...but then he went back to play with the waves...though, this time, he wouldn't stop running away from them calling everyone on his way and telling them to 'run, run, run'!
