We almost cancelled because of the heat but decided to go for it and took the kids to Great America on Wednesday. We roasted our butts off in the 90 degree heat!!! Carla and Tyler joined Alex and Sean and we all had a super fun day!!! The lines weren't as long and the kids kept cool with spray bottles. Tyler was daring enough to ride the Eagle and Viper with Alex even though he was an inch too short but Carla got him on anyway! The Demon seemed to be the favorite this year! This was Sean's first time at Great America and he loved everything!!! It sure felt good to sit in the air condition on the way home!!!
