Our Surprise Trip to Knotts


Once we finished our Halloween night we told the boys that we needed to go to the store. On our way home from the store we told the boys we wanted to go for a drive. They were not very happy about that. We told them that we should drive to California and they got mad at us. I wish they were would have recorded it. It was really funny how angry they were getting with us and how they kept saying, "I JUST WANT TO GO HOME!" They totally though that we were pulling their leg. We had to tell them that were we not joking and are going to stay in California for the weekend so we can go play at Knott's Berry Farm. They were so excited when they realized we were serious. lol!


We got to meet up with some friends, the Sweat Family, from college while were there. It was so much fun spending the day with them The boys loved sharing there knowledge of the rides. Jake and I finally tried a smoked turkey leg! It was very yummy and HUGE. Devin decided this time for some reason, that he didn't want to do the more thrilling roller coasters as he did last time. Could even get him to try. We did get them to try some new rides, Carter at first didn't want to but after watching Devin and realized they weren't as scary as he had thought he decided to do it. As Jake likes to remind the boys that in this family "we try new things" (with the exception to the things that are harmful to our body, spirit, and minds).


We tried to go to church on Sunday while we were in Cali but we found ourselves in the Spanish branch. lol. And it as fast Sunday. Jake kept trying to dare me to bear my testimony. I didn't go for it.
Sydney loved the attention she got from random strangers. Don't know what I am going to do with that girl :) The boy's didn't want to go on the train ride but afterwards said they liked it. According to Carter it's relaxing. We had to go to the Stunt show several times since it is one of the boy's favorite things to watch. As we left Knott's Berry Farm to head back home the boys were sad and asked it we could stay one more day! :)
