Favorite Day of the Year

For the last four years, at the end of the summer and before school starts Caleb and I spend all day together.  It's become a tradition that we spend all day at Six Flag's Great America and then go out for ice cream.  Today was that day and Caleb and I hung out all day! The picture is our last stop to get chocolate shakes.  (I was supposed to be at the Willow Leadership Summit Debrief today, but I decided to skip out.  To cover my butt I sent Bill Hybels an e-mail explaining our tradition and he shot me an e-mail back saying, "Good for you, love your kid!"  That was cool.)  We had a great time!  I think we rode on every roller coaster but one and because the lines were so short we were able to get off a roller coaster and then get back on!  It was a blast.  I love having kids.  On our way home I told Caleb, "thanks for being a kid."  Then he said, "thanks for being a kid on the inside!"  :)  This is one of my favorite days of the year!
