Have I already posted this? I thought that I had, but it doesn't look like it. If I did, I do apologize...
This was from the beginning of October :0)
We had a wonderful surprise!!! It has been very busy weeks for us. I think that all of us needed a break. That break came for us in an unexpected form!!! I was going through our emails. I came across one from our local Water Park, Splash Lagoon. I usually just delete them right away, but I decided that I would open this on. I sat looking at the screen. I was sure that something had to be wrong with the advertisement. It read:
4- 2 Day Passes For Splash Lagoon
1 Night in the Comfort Inn that was attached to the water park
Free Breakfast
FOR $99
I read it a few times before I had Jeremy come look at it. He thought it sounded a little too good to be true as well. Sure thing. It was TRUE!!! Normally, a 1 day pass alone is 40 dollars for an adult. So, this was a great deal. We knew that the kids would LOVE it!!! So, we made a spur of the moment reservation and decided to try out a staycation!!
It Was AMAZING!
Emmy spent a lot of time in this pool!!! She loved the water slide. Then, the next time, you couldn't get her to go on it! When she did, she loved it! She would come off the end so proud of herself that she did it! Adorable!
Andrew just landing at the end!
Love his BIG smile!
Cute little frog slide! I love how they have her coming out of the mouth on the tongue. This was definitely her favorite slide!
Landing at the end of the green slide. Let's just say. An adult was aloud on this slide if they had a child on their lap. Well, it went so much faster with an adult than just a child :0)
A fun sprinkler. The water would randomly shoot out of the different spots. They were laughing and having an amazing time.
More fun in the sprinkler!
More fun in the Kiddie pool!
A pipe with water pouring out! I should have gotten a video...she was dancing in it!
I was so excited/apprehensive!!! Andrew was able to go on some of the BIG water slides. He was able to ride on a double tube with one of us! He had such an amazing time! I was nervous the first few times. He went down with Daddy. All that I could think about was what if it flipped...blah blah blah. The second day, I went on this with him!!! It was so fun!
Hmmmm who could this be....NO THANKFULLY NOT ANDREW!
Look!!!! It is Papa!!! Papa and Nana met us here the first night! The kids loved it!
The Cyclone! You get shot out of a tube and spin round and round...kind of like a toilet! Then, you get washed down a chute! You can bomb them with water/spray them!!!

A body slide. I thought Andrew was going to not like it. He came off all frazzled. The slide flipped him all sorts of ways. He was telling me all about it. I asked him which ride was his favorite. He said, "This One!". I was relieved that he wasn't too scared to do it again!

We had an amazing time. It was well worth the money. As we were collecting our belongings to leave, Andrew said, "Thank You Mommy for bringing us to Splash Lagoon!". That made it all worth it! We are so thankful that the Lord has blessed us so that we could afford a little something not so ordinary!!!
I would recommend a staycation!
Have you ever gone on one yourself?
