Viva Vienna, the much anticipated event of the year.  I used to love Viva Vienna!  Not that I don’t love it anymore, BUT even better….my kids now love it more than me!

They are at an age now where they can pretty much ride all the big kid rides, though they still chose not to go on some of the scarier ones.  I don’t blame them. 

Avery was actually scared to go on the ferris wheel.  She said she would go on it if I went.  Despite my fear of heights, I said yes!

All three wanted wristbands this year, which meant they could ride as many rides during the day as they wanted.  While Justin and I knew monetarily it made more sense to purchase tickets for Avery and Harper, they felt strongly that the wristband was the way to go and it wasn’t worth the bickering. 

We met up with the Workmans and the O’Neills and the girls had a great time going on the rides with each other and their friends.

We stayed for five hours, the longest we have ever stayed at Viva Vienna! The girls got sunburned and by the end of the five hours were exhausted and felt accomplished.
