pre-holiday fun

since brandon had july 3rd off, we decided to venture out to the fall creek pool with the kids for the first time this season. i obviously could have been taking them all summer, but wasn't sure how hard it would be to keep an eye on them both. you see, the fall creek pool is like a mini-splashtown...and now that my kids have seen it, there is no turning back. they loved it. ok...they REALLY loved it. and it is so close that we just walk to it. now i am afraid they are going to turn their noses up @ the pool in their backyard after the fun they had on friday :) beckett was crazy for the slide. he climbs the stairs, hoists himself into the tunnel, slides down, and trenches through the water to do it again. all by himself. he did this no less than 30 times on friday. maybe that explains his 4 hour nap? oh yeah...we will for sure be going back.
as you can see in the above pic, it has big slides too. my kids are too young for those right now...but brandon is not. he had to show off for ellis :) also in the above pic is the splash pad or whatever people call those...where you just run through the water. and below is what i like to call the water fort...this is what beckett climbs and slides down...so fun!

off they go!


the water is only around 1 1/2 ft deep...but i still make em wear floaties...better safe than sorry right?


where's beckett?

there he is!


and again! we never knew how he would make his entrance...front, back, feet first, head first, etc... we were cracking up!



and little miss :)



yes...she always swims w/ a bow in her hair :)


if you haven't already noticed, i am one of those moms that makes her kids take really cheesey photos...


a little chilly?

couldn't help myself :)


come swim w/ us @ the fall creek pool!!!
