Minivacation....detoured

We planned to go to a water park a few weeks ago.  We thought since Cole didn’t get to swim or do any waterpark stuff in FL like we’d hoped (due to his surgery) we’d do this before school starts.  So the plan was to go tomorrow….on a Friday.  Just for the afternoon so it wouldn’t overwhelm Chelsi.  Well, then they put rain in the forecast and the temps were only going to be 70’s.  Too cold for me….Chase too.  :)  We decided we’d go today instead because the rain wasn’t supposed to start until tonight.  Well, they were wrong!  Imagine that.  It ended up raining after we got there.  So we opted to pay a little more and go to the indoor park instead.  It was a lot smaller, but at least the kids still got to do what they were initially planning….waterslides!  It was their first time at a waterpark, so it was probably just as well.  They really didn’t know what they were missing.  They had a great time and were not ready to leave, but Chelsi was.  Poor baby was exhausted.  She slept on the way there and the way back. 

She’s so funny.  On the way there I told her it was nap time.  She, so politely, closed her eyes and promptly went to sleep.  On the way back, after dinner, she just kept blinking her eyes.  You know the “if only I had toothpicks  to hold them open” blink?  And then she was out!

 They were ALL ready for bed tonight!  So am I.
