When Mom was up last week, we went to a place in Ogden called the Solomon Center. It is a huge activity center that has cosmic bowling, bumber cars, glow-in-the-dark miniature golfing, arcades, indoor sky diving, indoor surfing, wall climbing and many more activities. Everyone from Cache Valley came down and we had a fun day at the Solomon Center. For only $11.00, we got to bowl one game, ride the bumber cars, play golf, and have pizza and a drink. The kids started off loving the bowling, but they were soon ready to move onto the arcade games. Cooper kept trying to runaway and so I had to keep a close eye on him. The kids loved the bumper cars, however, Jaden just sat in his car and Jaxson had fun ramming into the girls' cars.
After that, we went upstairs and tried the indoor sky diving. You first have to go through a little training so they can teach you how to hold your legs and arms. They also teach you some signals that they use with their hands. We were also told that if we breathed through our mouths, then we would slobber all over our faces, so we all made sure that we were using our noses instead. So, instead of slobber all over our faces, we had snot everywhere. Anyway, we had to dress in these cool outfits and put on goggles, helmets, and ear plugs. Cooper was so excited to try it out. He told everyone that he was going to be a super hero. He looked so cute in his little outfit. But, when it was his turn, he didn't like it at all. The pressure from the wind is so strong, that it almost takes your breath away and makes you panic. He started crying so we took him out. Well, the next time, the guy that was in there with us, turned off the wind and tried to get Cooper to lay down with him on the floor. Cooper was smarter than that so he wouldn't lay down. I just told the guy to turn on the wind and let him try it. He floated for a second and then started crying again. Every one was outside the cylinder watching him. In fact, alot of people crowded around because they saw this cute little boy trying to sky dive. It was really neat and I want to thank Paul and Steph for giving us that opportunity. We had so much fun.
