Raging Summer Saturday

This past weekend was the last weekend of Summer Break for el kiddos ...so as promised ( yes better late than never) we took Parker to the Water Park. Something he has been DYING to do all summer break long.

 

We all jumped in the car and were off to San Dimas.

I had so MANY wonderful photo ops but I did not take any pictures until we were leaving. I just did not want to risk my camera getting Lost or Wet or WET!!

 

The first things we did was the Lazy River. Ava had a blast in that...well she had a blast the whole day. Her favorite was the wave pool though. I think we are going to have a surfer girl on our hands or definitely a swimmer. This kid LOVES the water and is a natural and already swimming on her own (with water rings of course and a watchful eye). The wave pool was pretty crazy and she kept walking out deeper and deeper with no fear. Waves were going over her head and submerging her and she just kept walking...good thing she is really good at holding her breath underwater.

 

Parker went on Drop Out (the scariest slide) in the whole park. It basically just drops you straight down...I don't think Parker realized what he was getting himself into but it ruined him for the whole day. He did not want to go on any slides really the rest of the day.

 

We all also went on Thunder rapids which is a Big rapid inter tube that all of us could sit in...that thing was pretty wild. It seriously felt like we were gonna get thrown off.

 

Several water rides, water wedgies and sunburn it was now twilight and time to go home.

 

 We had some Capri suns in my beach bag. We were all THIRSTY and HUNGRY.

 Bummed...I did not go on this one...just not enough time in the day

 The guys ..and Ava....LOL Parkers water shoes got WORKED. His toes were hanging out at the end of the day.

Let's just say we were WIPED OUT by the time we got home.
