The kids had a blast. This park has a splash area, lazy river and wave pool. Best part? My kids are old enough to be let loose. They each do what they want when they want to but first, family lazy river ride. We grabbed two double tubes and one single. We jumped in our tubes, held onto each others ankles and off we went. It was wonderful! I didn't get any pictures of this because I didn't want to get my phone wet. Maybe next time! I actually took one lazy river pic from later on in the day:
Of course, my kids were the ones swimming in the lazy river instead of riding on tubes. Anyway, after the family lazy river ride, we went to the splash area. There were maybe three other families there (when it gets super hot in Miami, everyone heads to the beaches, best time for a water/splash park) so it was great to run around and have fun!
Man, he's handsome!!
Then we went to the wave pool. Here I annoyed them enough to take a group pic for me!
And then everyone in true form:
We had a wonderful, family-fun, carefree day. Exactly what a Sunday should be!! After the park we went to Dunkin Donuts and had doughnuts and bagels for dinner! This was our "We survived the first week back to school" celebratory dinner!! Days like this make life worth living!!
What did you do this weekend?
I love this! And I'd hope to never be too old for the splash park. I still enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteWe have an Adventure River at Six Flags here and it's not as relaxing as a lazy river! It has surprise waterfalls EVERYWHERE! Ahhh! And so cold! Scarlet was not amused by that.
Waterfalls are cold. This one had a lazy river with waterfalls and I would cover the kids when we were going under it! Still fun though!
DeleteLooks like so much fun! I love last minute little trips! What Splash Park is this?
ReplyDeleteIt was one in between Hialeah and Miami Lakes. They are fun!
DeleteThat looks like so much fun! I can remember going to splash parks when I was about your kids' ages, and I LOVED them. I was old enough to swim by myself, and that was a lot of fun. :) Sounds like this was the perfect way to spend a hot Sunday!
ReplyDeleteIt was super fun!
DeleteThis is so awesome!! Sounds like the perfect day!! I love the part where you said your kids are old enough to do their own thing, makes me have hope in the future lol. And you definitely have a cute hubby, your whole family is cute! I'm glad you guys had such a great end to your week!
ReplyDeleteThere is a light at the end of the tunnel my friend! Sometimes I wish they were still little though!
