Kalihari Fun

Well, we had our weekend away at the waterpark.  The girls had a blast!  The whole drive there, we constantly heard about how they were going to go swimming and how excited they were.  Sitting in the car with them while Nate registered us at the hotel was pure torture because the poor things didn't understand why we were just sitting there doing nothing!  But finally they had their chance.

They were a little timid at first.  They each put their feet in the water and that was about as far as they were going to go.  After a little prodding, they attempted the kiddie water slides and eventually graduated to the medium sized slides.  The next morning, we were actually able to get them to come down a couple big slides with us on rafts. 

They definitely didn't want to leave.  And they've been constantly saying how they want to go swimming ever since we got back home.  If only we could make that happen. 

Patiently waiting for Livi to get done eating.

But Livi isn't quite full yet!

Livi running through the water.

Addi army crawling.

Livi liked throwing the water in the air.

Still throwing water.

Addi running so fast!

Addi saw the big kids go down on their bellies, so why not?

Livi flying solo on the rope wall.

Livi's big splash!!

Addi's got the hang of this "lazy river" thing.

Wow, they are so brave! We could barely get the girls to go down the mini slides when we went to the one by us in Sandusky! Maybe I should get some pool memberships this year to get them more used to the water. Glad to see y'all have some fun; you deserve it!(:
