A Day with My Sister at the Water Park

So last Saturday (26th) we drove down to Pocatello to meet my sister and her husband at the water park there. We'd been wanting to get together and this way we were meeting about half way instead of one of us making a huge trip out of it.
 The kids warmed right up to them which I was SO relieved about, and we all had a great time. Sydney is a little more daring and enjoyed the water a lot, though still preferred to stay away from where it was spraying. She even loved going down the lazy river with us for quite a while. David seemed excited at first until he got sprayed by accident after only a couple minutes and the rest of the day he preferred to stay on the grass. There were train tracks right behind us and he had fun watching all the trains(there were a lot) and playing with the bubble gun. Finally less than an hour before we were going to leave he tried the water again and had fun. Go figure.
We thought there'd be shade, but there was NONE, so we spent 8 hours straight in the sun with NO shade. I thought we were going to die at first but it really was ok. Just kept lathering up in sunscreen(hear me cringing), playing in the water, and putting Parker in the shade provided by our cooler. We escaped with minimal sunburns. Woo!
So here are a bunch of pictures. I didn't condense a ton because I know family would like all of them. Thanks Annalise and Steve for joining us. We had a great time and miss you already!


Sydney really took to Annalise and cried when it was time to part. So cute!

I just really like this one for some reason.

The rest of the pictures were taken by my sister and her awesome camera, and I think she got some really good ones!

Another kid gave this to David. He doesn't ever really drink pop, let alone from a can so his faces he was making were pretty funny!

What great pictures. Looks like a fun park. And you know, side by side you and your sister don't look that much alike. I always thought you looked so much alike.
