It's time for another fun summer adventure! We've got these Six Flags passes that are good for every Six Flags Park, plus a Meal Plan, all-day Drink Plan, Photo Passes, and Unlimited Fast Lane, so I think we can have a pretty good time at any Six Flags park we go to. And luckily Theresa is a master planner who also loves earning hotel points, giving us cheap lodging anywhere we go. This time we're going to leave the RV in Florida and take the Prius (with its bonus 45mpg) on a major road trip!

Knott's Berry Farm Visit, visiting California friends, and heading home - 2026/05/01
We're wrapping up our time in California but we've got one more full day of fun! Theresa is not working today and ready to join us at a theme park! She's done Magic Mountain with us on a previous trip and there's not a ton of things for her to do. Today, let's go to Knott's Berry Farm and do all the rides Theresa can do!

Ian's Gymnastics USA Olympics - 2026-05-16
Every year, our gymnastics gym has a big event for their kids that they call their Olympics. Alli is on a competitive team now, so she doesn't compete, but Ian has been progressing in tumbling from beginner to intermediate, and working to get up into advanced. All season Alli has had friends and family come to watch her events, and now we've got a great big party coming to watch Ian, flying out from Michigan and Colorado!

Disney California Adventure visit - 2026/04/30
Today we're in California, Theresa's off work, and we're all set to have some fun at Disney!
When I asked Ian which park he preferred, we had the following exchange.
Ian - which one has Toy Story Midway Mania? DCA
Ian - and the Incredicoaster? DCA
Ian - and Guardians? DCA
Ian - and Web Slingers? DCA
Ian - and Radiator Springs Racers? DCA
I guess it's pretty clear which park we're going to visit!

Knott's Berry Farm visit, CEC, Korean, and Beach Volleyball - 2026/04/28
Time for our next adventure! Last year when we visited, our Six Flags passes were only good at Six Flags parks. Since then though, all the Cedar Fair parks have been rolled into the family and now they're included as well! It's been forever since I've been to Knott's Berry Farm, and the kids have never been!
We watched a few videos showing all the rides and the kids were excited to get on some new roller coasters.

The kids are gone! Joe and Theresa go on vacation! 2026/03/24
It's Spring Break and Theresa and I just put on the kids on an airplane to fly out to Colorado to hang out with their grandparents and cousin all week! Time for us to do something fun too! On past trips, we've dropped the kids off and headed to Tahiti, and then another time we flew to Bora Bora. Where to this time?
