Surprise trip to Europa Park

What do you do when your kids are out of school and it’s Friday October 13?!? You have your hubby take the day off, fill your car with teenagers and go to Europa Park.

Europa park knows how to party it was so fun to see it all decked out in Halloween Decorations. We got to watch a couple shows, Watch the Halloween Parade. Went through some haunted houses/streets. Rode coasters all day long. The park was suppose to close at 6:00pm but because it was so busy they kept the park open until 7:30pm. We finally caught up will all the teens at 6:15pm and spent the next 1 1/2 hours riding silver star. We all had so much fun.

So I was able to grab a couple pictures before everyone left for the day.

Jeremy and Tina rode the train for 45 minutes. 
Jeremy took a little nap, he was so tired.
While riding the train Jermey was minding his own business and got wet from the water ride.
It was hilarious.  

Look at these smiles.

Catapult-also called throwing machine, is a large, non-portable remote weapon which greatly accelerates projectiles by means of mechanical energy from dormant state.  The Romans also used such large boulders.  These were then catapulted towards the enemy.
