Holiday in the Park

We had season passes to Six Flags this year.  So we thought we would take the kids one last time today for Holiday in the Park before they close for the year.  Everyone else apparently had the same idea.  It was so packed that you could barely move through the crowd.  Even parking was bad.  In the three and half hours that we endured this chaos, the kids only rode a grand total of THREE rides.  The lines were so long even for the kiddie rides.  I stood in line with Andrew and Anna for 40 minutes to ride the Trucks only to see them go around the track three times. 

After we all four decided we had enough of this crazy place, we left the park and went to Boston's to have pizza.   Yes! even I got to enjoy gluten free pizza.  Anna and I actually shared it.  Even though it is a small pizza, I can't eat it all. 

Then to end the trip, I begged Alan to let me run into Whole Foods Market (my favorite grocery store) and look for some gluten free goodies.  Hmmm.......that may have been a mistake!  I found chocolate covered doughnuts, cinnamon rolls, and freshly baked chocolate cupcakes with icing!  I came out of the store with a big smile.  Then my kids thought they had the right to have my very own gluten free treats!  Of course, I set them straight and told them they get cinnamon rolls baked for them EVERY Saturday morning and they can go to the doughnut shop and get what they want when Dad wants too.  By the way, the chocolate cupcakes were AMAZING!!!!
