"Park & Puddles"

Today we went to the Brownlee Water Park for the first time this season. It was a beautiful day, so after we picked you up from school, we headed with Shelby, Austin, Sophy, and two new friends, Ryan and Josh, to the park. Shelby had never played in water before, so she was in for a real treat. And boy oh boy, did she look cute in her little pink tutu bathing suit! You guys had a great time running and splashing; there is sand everywhere too, so y'all enjoyed digging in it too. Shelby was a little slower to warm up to the whole water squirting everywhere thing. The sprayers had a little force behind the water, so we had to take it slow. Shelby, once you got over the initial anxiety about it, you had a great time. You especially loved to splash in the water that was on the concrete and to find little tiny rocks that you insisted must go in your mouth! You kept Mommy pretty busy intercepting rocks before they made it in. It was all fun and games until another little girl shot us right in the face with a huge blast of water; then you had had enough. To cap off the day, the icecream truck came rolling up, and of course we all had to indulge. It was the first of many, I am sure, visits to Brownlee!
