Olivia loves to read, and she spent lots and lots of time reading and taking accelerated reader (AR) tests this school year. As a reward, the school took the top 10 AR readers from each grade level to Wild Adventures for a day of fun- and Olivia fell into this category. This field trip occurred on the exact same day as Owen's beach trip. So, while the boys were at the beach, the girls were at the theme park. I thought that Olivia would have fun riding the rides with her friends, but that wasn't the case. All of the kids pretty much ended up walking around with their parents instead of with other kids. That was fine with me. We took this opportunity to ride some of the rides that we can't ride when Owen is with us (because he is too short)- including two of the big roller coasters. I let Olivia plan our day, and she wanted to do a lot of the animal-centered activities. She fed the birds, butterflies, and pet a baby emu. We had a great time.
