North Pole Weekend

Last weekend, Hubby and I took the kids to the North Pole -- the North Pole in Colorado Springs, that is.

This is an amusement park outside of Colorado Springs where Santa lives year round.  They have half-priced tickets a few weekends a year and this past weekend was one of those.  We went two years ago and found that the rides were perfect for our kids because the twins were tall enough to ride nearly every ride as young as 20 months of age.  This year, Lee Lee was tall enough to ride nearly everything -- and Tracey was almost too tall for a few.

We had a great time.

Our Michigan did not help Michigan to win that day... but we had fun at the North Pole.

On the way home, we stopped at a Visitor's Center in the mountains and met a mountain man who played guitar.  Our girls had fun singing along to Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, and then he taught us a song about a moose that loved to eat marshmallows.
