February is just about gone and in our family we get excited when March arrives.  This happens for a number of reasons...March means Spring is close and warmer weather will be coming soon, our number one son has a birthday in March, and March also means we will soon be able to visit the City again!  

Of course we love all our "favorites" in the park but we're really looking forward to the new stuff this year.  The kids have been peeking through the hole in the fence for several months now but they're very excited to finally be able to see the new RiverBlast ride.  Woo-hoo! 

One of the "Mom" things I'm looking forward to is the new Official Measuring Station at the Grand Exposition.  You can stop by with your kids at the beginning of your visit, have them measured for the rides and they'll be given a wristband.  This will speed up the process of getting through the ride lines and also help to avoid waiting in line only to get to the front and discover your child is not tall enough to ride.  Who doesn't want to avoid those tears! 

By the way, speaking of March, don't forget to get your Season Passes by March 5th for the best available benefits.  See you in the park!
