Loving Cowabunga Bay

While Rob was hard at work Karlee and I went to Cowabunga Bay with my sisters and their families.  I honestly didn't know what to expect having only driven by a number of times - but this place was so much fun. We all purchased the all day swim/play pass, which worked out great. We found a well shaded place over by the 'Kids Cove' for my sister's babies and for all of us to drop our stuff. It really was perfect!!!

Tyler, Karlee, Paige, Malia, Trenton, and Sadie.

This water park is 80% water slides, and 20% pool. The slides were so much fun. I wasn't sure I would go on all the slides, but thanks to my brave niece Paige we hit each and every one. The amazing thing about this park is that the slides don't end into a pool of water they just end at the end of the slide. I know there is a scientific word for it, but um yeah don't know it so wont even try to explain it.

Here is the top of one of two slides.

Karlee had a good time after she got over the splash features. This girl has never been a huge of Splash pads. I think Karlee got out of the water a total of two times while we were there (one time for eating a bit of lunch and the other time to eat a very expensive ice cream cone - I will explain later)

My sisters babies (Brayden and Colton were both good and gold in this porta-crib. They were able to stay out of the hot sun, enjoy the nice cool breeze and still take naps while everyone spent time playing in the water.

Okay so this ice cream that Karlee is enjoying comes at a high price (for an ice cream). Karlee kept asking me for an ice cream, I told her that I didnt think that they sold ice cream at the water park. That answer worked for awhile, then she saw someone that had one and so she got me. I told her that if I were to buy her one, she was then going to have to eat the entire ice cream (cause I knew they weren't cheap). Karlee took me by the hand and we went and got her the ice cream. I about died when the kid told me it would be $3.00. Really not sure why I was shocked I knew it was going to be crazy! By the time we had walked back to our stuff the ice cream was already melting and actually fell off the cone - luckily I grabbed the top before it hit the ground. honestly! Karlee ate the whole ice cream cone and told me that it was so so delicious. So glad it was. When I told Rob he asked me if it was ice cream made from Gold. haha

Karlee enjoying her ice cream!!!

Here is little Tyler taking a cat nap and well deserved break from the water. Such a cute kid.

So we will be coming back to Cowabunga Bay again. . . Rob felt like he was missing out so Karlee and I get to go again. So can't wait.
