Worlds of Fun date

                                           
Amber and I's first REAL date was when we went to Worlds of Fun in KC. We'd been texting alot back and forth. Amber asked me to send her some pics that were crazy and it made her smile and warm and fuzzy on the inside.(to know the rest...you have to buy the book!) We decided to plan a fun day at the amusement park. June 2nd is the day we picked. It was a great day to go lots of sunshine and it was really warm. It was in the middle of the week so the park wasn't too over crowded.  As we drove down to the park we had a lot of laughs along the way. Once we got there we paid the $10 parking fee(OUCH!) and walked in to our first amusement park together. I had been there before several times in years past, but I'm not sure if Amber had been or not. (She can correct this :-) ) We first rode on the Zulu. It's a big wheel that turns over on it's side and you set in a car. So the ground comes up fast and then back up to the sky...I think it feels like you are Superman lifting off the ground again and again. That ride set the whole tone for the day.
 
I remember Amber laughing and having butterflies in her stomach. She was so sexy with her hair hitting my face and her laughing and yelling every time the ground came up! After that we walked around some more and we got on the Boomerrang. This ride takes up you up one way and then gives you the whole ride in reverse. This is a fun one! Plus the guy running the ride recognized who was on my shirt!! (3 Stooges).  We then went to get something to eat. We split a hot dog and a Mt Dew (Amber's fav). We talked awhile and let our food digest.

We then switched gears and went to the other side of the park which is Oceans of Fun. After changing into our bathing suits,(Amber looking HOT in hot pink!) we oiled each other up and were on our way into the water. This is the part I think Amber liked the best because she is such a water person. We rode the water slides a few times and went in the surf/wave river which was REALLY choppy and hard to swim in as there were TONS of people in it.
 
 



I also have to mention that I did play alittle in the kid area because of the big bucket of water that fills up every 4mins and then SPLASHES down on everything. Amber sat out for that one while I had fun there. I tried to LURE her under the big bucket a few times to give her a kiss with all the water pouring down on us, but she wouldn't have any part of it. (I'm going to get her this summer to do it now that we're married!) :-P Starting to get water logged, we decided to move back to the other side of the park.

By this time we were ready to dry off and our favorite ride of the day came into play. The Patriot!! It is such a fun fun ride! They take your photos on this ride and we rode it twice. It was so funny looking at our expressions after the ride was over with. I think both times my eyes were closed and mouth open! hahaha With this ride, I think we really connected with each other, because after it, it was the first time Amber and I held hands. It just happened....nothing forced and it felt very natural. Afterwards, we started going into some of the gift shops they had down there. Fun trinkets, clothing, and more....ohhh and lots of hats!! Funny hats too! I remember trying them on with her and just being silly. We desided to get 2 for ourselves, but the more nicer ones. Mine a straw-like fedora and hers a straw-like big brimmed sun hat. She looked great in hers....mine...I'm not too sure yet. LOL
 
Having all fun in the sun we stayed in KC for the night. ;-) This was our first real kickoff to dating and spending the weekends together. To be contintined...
