LoraX Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Yes, you read that right. I was going through pics and found some from a trip in 2007. The pics are funny to me. Jimmy looks like he smacked Katie upside the head. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CP&LERR Fan Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 I hope I can get my video footage from KI in 2005 converted to digital soon. I can't wait to see the rest of the photos. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoraX Posted November 7, 2013 Author Share Posted November 7, 2013 I will do this from home tonight. I will say that these are two trips in 2007. One is in May (Katie in pink top and Cody in blue) and the other in August (Katie in the red top and Cody in brown). The August trip was blazing hot. I wish I could find all the pics I took on our trips that summer. It has been one of our favorite summers at Kings Island. We dubbed it, "the year of sneaking mullet pictures." I had captured over 100 pics of 100 different people with mullets in one visit to Kings Island. For some reason, I cannot locate the mullet shots and have no idea why there were so many mullets that day. My son will also be featured. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoraX Posted November 8, 2013 Author Share Posted November 8, 2013 This is one of my favorite pictures of Kaitlyn. She was really just caught up in loving being at Kings Island. She used to love riding this. I nearly have to beg her to ride it now. I can't tell from my phone, but believe she has rabbit ears. This is my son, Cody. This is the assault of Kaitlyn pics. Blue trying to strangle her: Tommy trying to get fresh (from her body language it looks like she was goosed) Jimmy looks like he bonked her in the head: Patrick spouted a new arm for a sneak attack perhaps. She apparently felt safe with Chucky: Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoraX Posted November 8, 2013 Author Share Posted November 8, 2013 Congo Falls, he got wet. "Read my lips": She was a soggy chick: He was raised by wolves: She is trying to give directions? A side note with this pic, because it's truly amazing what looking at pics will do with memories. It was the last trip to KI I went on with my friend Robbie. He was drinking and driving and died. :'(. This is his niece. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoraX Posted November 8, 2013 Author Share Posted November 8, 2013 Since I found more pics, this is 2008 My cousin Sandy and I: Katie taking driving much more serious than me: My cousins step son, when you gotta go you gotta go: Some days you gotta dance: RIP Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoraX Posted November 8, 2013 Author Share Posted November 8, 2013 Because I started looking and could not stop. Katie's bday is July 10. In 2012, she was going to be at camp on her birthday. So, being the nice, sensitive, compassionate mom that I am, I threatened for months (starting in January) I was going to Kings Island on her birthday. I met Katelynn that day and her mom Amber. Changed my life meeting them. I still keep in touch with them. Some kid in line at Diamondback. Random kid outside the restroom: My friend Corey: The dinosaur: Me and Snoopy: Ed Alonzo. He was truly awesome. He signed it "where are you?!" I told him I would bring her back on Saturday. So we went back on Saturday. I walked up to him and said I was here earlier in the week, he responds, "where's the birthday girl?" Then told her how mean I am.

LoraX Posted November 8, 2013 Author Share Posted November 8, 2013 Random 2012 pics: Katie and a friend. What can I say, we love Ed Katie and Sydney Katie and her poopy dog Shawn and Gus (Psych) errr Katie and Shyanne: And we have been blessed to "win" a giant prize. I told Katie IF she won, she would have to carry it herself. I truly did not think she would win. She plowed into people. She got upset with me, I could not stop laughing. 2000 Saturn Station Wagon. We had to lay the back seat down. It is huge. It was a lot of work for them lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoraX Posted November 8, 2013 Author Share Posted November 8, 2013 More 2012: Eat more cow! Dinosaurs apparently are obedient to signs to not eat people: Workers didn't say anything.

LoraX Posted November 8, 2013 Author Share Posted November 8, 2013 2011 was very bad year health wise for me. I rode very few rides due to excessive pain, at times resorting to being pushed in a wheelchair. The scariest ride in the park is being pushed in a wheelchair by a 14 year old. Very happy. This ride was stuck for quite a bit. Thankfully my daughter was not on this ride. Of course she was in line and rode it as soon as it started going again. She rode this several times this trip.

LoraX Posted November 8, 2013 Author Share Posted November 8, 2013 2013 THE night of the year!!! Banshee announcement August 8, 2013. July 5. Katie and her friend Sarah ate insane amounts of cotton candy this day. The only time either of my children got sick at the park. Katie n Sarah, Ed and dancers Loved this show, great music selection.

LoraX Posted November 8, 2013 Author Share Posted November 8, 2013 1996. Had to take pics of pics. Cody's 7th birthday!!!! The man and boy on right photobombed before photo bombing was cool. . Left to right are godsons Jason (now 22) Nick (now 24) and my son Cody (now 24). Trying to get brave...and taller How things have changed! Not a great pic, but a favorite. Adventure Express. Closest to me on right is my son. The one on the left is Jason. The one in front of Jay is Nick. As we are getting ready to get in line, Nick asks me if this is a scary ride. I pointed to Vortex. I said, see that ride? He says yes. I say that ride does not scare me, so no, *I* do not find this ride scary at all. Well it convinced him to get on the ride. (That and his mom bribed him with Smurf ice cream that he has yet to receive.) the entire ride Nick screams at the top of his lungs, "LORA LIED TO ME!!!!!" (No, I didn't. You asked me if I thought the ride was scary, not if I though YOU would find it scary) bwahaha Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoraX Posted November 8, 2013 Author Share Posted November 8, 2013 Not sure why, but I didn't take many pics at Cedar Point. June 2013. I think it is partly because I went to be a chaperone for our youth group. The rule was a group of three if all boys or all girls. If mixed group, then an adult must be present. I ended up with 8 kids in my group. I was told next trip they want me to go because I let them be teens and they had fun. (You can be a Christian and have a blast!) awesome group of kids.

LoraX Posted November 8, 2013 Author Share Posted November 8, 2013 Dollywood 2009 We arrived at the park and our first stop is the restroom. I go to wash my hands, I was welcomed by this: Ironically, she loves owls now. Love the eagle habitat I was told this is going away (or has gone away). I thought this was fun.

LoraX Posted November 9, 2013 Author Share Posted November 9, 2013 I hate spiders too. Thank you all. I am positive I have more pics. Just not sure where. We had a house fire in 2005 and I lost a lot of pics and things I collected. I am thankful that the kids weren't hurt and it was not major damage like it could have been so losing photos and collectibles is minimal. (I still have more than a 55 gallon container of pics. Just not all that I had). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoraX Posted November 9, 2013 Author Share Posted November 9, 2013 I think it is a wolf spider. Forgot to answer that. I screamed LOUD. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoraX Posted November 9, 2013 Author Share Posted November 9, 2013 I added a couple pics on the random pics. I found a few more pics on photobucket. It is dated 2008 as the date uploaded. My daughter seems short though. It is between 2005-2008. A Santa wannabe I have one good pic I have several awesome pics - she apparently had discovered the water behind her Can't believe he did not get her first. He is normally a little quicker on the take then that. I am so happy for pics that capture "them" Before. During. Not sure why the face. He's rode coaster since he was little. The expression cracks me up. Peace Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McSalsa Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Really cool photo's! What kind of spider is that? Yuck, I hate spiders. I will try to awnser your question, at least roughly. It's a blurry picture, but I'm 90% sure that's some form of Wolf Spider. They are big and scary looking, and their bites hurt, but they are not "deadly" like Black Widow Spiders (and even then I'm using "deadly" generously, if you are bitten by a Black Widow it will hurt like heck but the odds of dying with proper medical treatment are very low). And in these parts (Indiana, Ohio, Tennessee, Kentucky, etc.) they are fairly common so that's what I'd go with. McSalsa, who was also afraid of spiders in the past, but did research on them and now is simply "curious" and finds them interesting. Still just a wee bit creepy, though... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiamondAceExpress Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 I love old pictures! I was laughing so hard seeing them try to take that giant stuffed animal prize up the steps! Does it need its own bedroom? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoraX Posted November 15, 2013 Author Share Posted November 15, 2013 I love old pictures! I was laughing so hard seeing them try to take that giant stuffed animal prize up the steps! Does it need its own bedroom? She has a decent size room (Katie shares the room with Bruno the gorilla), but it does get in the way. If she gets her room clean, I will take a pic. I don't know if I have laughed more at her winning that thing as she carried it through the park. I did not know how truly large the thing was until she started carrying it. I mean I thought it was big, but man it's huge! I did not think about it not fitting into the car because I had a 2000 Saturn Station wagon so no problem. WRONG! We got home late that night so we left him in the car. Two of my neighbors were trying to figure out what we had got wedged in the car, then tried to figure out why we had it. (They are aware we are a little peculiar.) Getting it from the game to the car was work (for her). Getting it inside equally hard.

DiamondAceExpress Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Thank you for the inside information from a winning family. Now I know to never, ever allow my kids to play a game with the potential of such a prize. If they won that, we'd have to leave a kid at the park! Oh, wait, they'd probably enjoy that. When we were kids, my brother won a really big animal, but it was nowhere near as big as yours. It was just like a hard foam covered in fabric, not even enjoyable. Is your gorilla guy soft and cuddly? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
