This Frugal Family

Kennywood is celebrating their 120th season, and I had to go check out the fun, from when I was a kid.  My 7 year old, son, had a blast.  He loved Noah’s Ark the most.  A walk through attraction, at the park.  I had forgotten how much fun Noah’s Ark was, til Jacob took our family through it.  I can’t get over how Kennywood has changed through the years.  I used to go there, when I was in High School, and now it seems different but the same, in so many ways. Jacob also liked the bikes, in Kiddieland.  We waited a while to ride them, but he had fun.  All the rides in Kiddieland, Jacob enjoyed. Thomas Town is the newest attraction, at Kennywood.  It was packed in that section of the park.  There’s a cute ride, for your child and you, that you can put out the fire in Thomas Town.  There’s also the train ride, and a few others.  My family really enjoyed themselves at Thomas Town, and the rest of the park. Kennywood has always been my favorite place to go, in our area.  The roller coasters are great, and the rides for the kids are…

We have made this a tradition, in our family, and we are not disappointed.  Kennywood’s Holiday Lights Show is Fantastic this year.  They are exceptionally great this time around.  We even got close to Santa Claus, with no long line.  We were able to see him, and Jacob just adored that part of the trip. Santa will be here in a few short weeks, and if you haven’t already, go to see the Holiday Lights at Kennywood.  You will love it, whether you have little ones, or not.  We, of course, got some toys, for Jacob to bring home.  They are really cool, and were inexpensive.  The tree has a strobe light on the bottom, and it reflects off of everything.  Really Cool, Kennywood! Seeing Santa, and Christmas Kenny The Kangaroo, was the first thing we did, in the park.  We wanted to get there, before the line got too long.  So we got there at 5:45 pm.  We were there with a few more people, but the wait was so short.  Usually the line is really long, to see Jolly Old Saint Nick.  We were in and out, within 15 minutes.  Jacob loved being able to tell Santa what…

Kennywood Park, in Pittsburgh, PA had their Comic Con on June 18, 2017. As we walked in, we saw The Flash and Supergirl standing at a booth and didn’t hesitate to get our picture with them! As we walked through the park, we saw booths of comic books, jewelry, art, and much more! In one of the pavilions, artists were set up with art and jewelry. It was awesome getting to see and purchase some of the art. These artists were all very talented and each had a unique twist on the styles they drew in. We went around the park and rode a lot of the rides, from the Jack Rabbit to the Merry Go Round. We made sure to play some games, too! The ping pong game was always my favorite, so I made sure to play that a lot! We had some potato path fries for lunch and stopped at another booth to get some mac n cheese.  The food has always been one of my favorite parts are Kennywood.  It’s been a family favorite, for many years.  My mom and dad were coming here a long time before me, and my family will come here for…
