Roller coasters, yummy s’mores, festive lights & so much more! Another great night playing in the park with my sister Jen, niece Taylor and cousin Kim. Holiday fun for everyone last night at Six Flags Great America!
Of course we had to stop off to toast some marshmallows and make s’mores…
who doesn’t like ooey, gooey, yummy toasted marshmallows on a chilly winter night?!
Huge displays of LED covered walls showing festive images with holiday music!
Holiday lights everywhere you look!
And Ugly Christmas Sweaters for everyone!!!
My niece Taylor & sister Jen waiting for the X-FLIGHT roller coaster…
and yes, we went on it THREE times!!!
And who doesn’t love spinning in tight circles while revolving in bigger circles?!
The joy & hilarity of the Spinning Teacups!!!
Kim loved it…
Taylor loved it…
My sister Jen… not so much.
Amused, but just trying to keep her stomach down.
Kim playing in a dramatic gobo light pattern.
More LED displays with images & songs moving & playing all around the building.
Had to laugh at this display of “pharmacy” health-aides… just in case.
None for me thanks… but my sister “may have” had a bit of the Dramamine!!!
And my favorite…
Nothing says Christmas like a DANGER sign all lit up with festive lights!!!

After thirteen games of bingo, a couple raffles, and a LOT of daubing… I got nothing!!!
Didn’t even gone close but once! Luckily my friend Sandy won one of rounds!!! Okay, so I will admit that there may have been two rounds where it was going so fast that I started to giggle and couldn’t stop. Allegedly. Tears running down my face as I tried to stifle the laughter… only to make it worse. Not quite sure I even “heard†all of the numbers called in those two rounds?! So maybe I could have won some cash… but instead I had a great night of fun with my friends! I take that any time!!

Sarah did a challenge through 2019 of making one brooch a week!!! I’ll be playing with her again tomorrow at The Merchandise Mart… so be sure to stop by and say “Hello” in Booth #2118.
