Waterpark Fun!

We spent the day at The Ravine Waterpark in Paso Robles on Monday for Labor Day. We had a GREAT time! It was the perfect place to be, given that it was 100+ degrees even in San Luis. It is a great place....especially for the little ones! The park is owned by one of our neighbors down the street who has little kids, so he said that they designed it with his own kids in mind. They have 4 BIG water slides, a lazy river, a wave pool (Avery calls it the "ocean"), and a HUGE kiddie pool that has 6 slides, a play structure, and never gets deeper than 1 1/2 feet!! We spent all day there playing in the water and resting in the cabana- it was so relaxing and fun! The season is ending next week, but we plan to be there a lot next summer!

Here are a few pictures from our day at Ravine!

My mom and Larry in the Lazy River!Avery started out the day pretty timid- she wanted to wear the life jackets (that are provided) and wouldn't go down the kiddie slides without one of us going with her!!!Paul on one of the BIG slides... this picture doesn't show how tall the slide is, but it is VERY tall and very FAST! I only went once....that was enough for me! Uncle Bubba and Finny chillin' in the kiddie pool!YaYa and the girls!Finley wasn't so sure about the water at first, but she warmed up to it as the day progressed!Avery and YaYa playing in the "ocean" (the wave pool).Relaxing and napping in the cabana. Avery on an ice cream break!Sharing with Daddy...sweet girl!This is Avery AFTER our lunch break... she was absolutely fearless! She was going down all of the slides by herself, over, and over, and over again! Daddy and Avery after he caught her at the end of one of her slide runs! Avery taking a "shower" in one of the water spouts in the kiddie pool! One of Avery's favorite things to do was go through the tunnels of the play structure in the kiddie pool.
Finley looks so cute in her suit and hat!And, they are OUT! Both the girls were asleep before we even pulled out of the parking lot! They got a pretty good nap on the drive home!
