Coney Island

For the 4th of July we went up to Cincinnati to spend the weekend with Steven’s brother and his family. Our great niece Leah is the same age as Emmaline and they have a BIG time together. So right after we got there, her mommy and her showed up and we all went to Coney Island for the afternoon. FUN was the word of the day!

We start off with a show….they even got to take part in it!

Showing off their armbands so they could ride ALL the rides (at least that is what Emma thought )

They went from one thing to another….and a few things twice :-)

This was one of their favorites. The “Frog Hopper”. It went up to the top and then would drop…rise again…drop…rise again…drop. They were scared to death, but LOVED every minute of it!

There was a big playground there too so they took a break from the rides and played in the fort and on the slide for a bit.

They love each other. I just thought this was too cute!

All that playing and riding was hot work….time for ice cream. Leah got what I expected….Chocolate. But Emmaline is a little different and she prefers Vanilla – or as she calls it “Va-illa”.

Steven’s brother, Marshall, had as much fun as the kids did!!
