The Enchanted Forest

Every summer when my sister comes to visit we visit the little park south of Salem called the Enchanted Forest.We've been going since our 10 year olds were little just as we went when we were kids. Here's the kids on the log ride its not exactly splash mountain but its a close second, the kids love it!
Here's my nephew in the indian caves a huge favorite among the boys. He's my sisters baby, even if he is 6. He's full of southern charm, always ready to give you a hug or kiss, he walks around singing songs and dancing, and it doesn't hurt he's got a little extra chub on him that you can't help but wanna squish!
The crew in front of the princess castle. For those of you who haven't been they have various scences from nursery rhymes including snow white, peter peter pumkin eater, and hansel and gretal.
Having a little lunch in one of the midevil type picnic rooms. It's no Disneyland but it has a certain charm that grows on ya!
This is the favorite of the park. The old women in the show slide. The kids go again and again and again. Aubrey was all for it but Sydney took some prodding. After one try, she was hooked. My sister and niece gave me a break from taking the twins down so I could take pictures. Isn't my sister pretty she's newly single so if anyone know a nice mornmon boy for her let me know!
My nephew Matt was so great with the twins, he took them in the indian caves and was their big helper the whole time he was here. The girls rewarded him with being his constant companians.
Western Town. We also went to the silly play they always have. They also have rides for big and little kids.
This is Sydney, the girls thought it was great. We always end the day with ice cream and the water show. My sister I were pretty wiped out but all in all it was a very fun and I'm sure we'll be there again next year.
I apologize if this post sounded like a commercial it was unintentional!
