Poor man's Roaring Springs

Yesterday at church, Celeste said that her and Jen wanted to go to Settlers Park and let the kids run around in the splash pad since it's been so hot. So at 10:30 we loaded up and heading to park and met up with a bunch of other gals and kids from the ward. The water turned on a couple of minutes later, and every single kid that was playing on the equipment was in the water! Dax and Abby both went running for it, and the moment Abby got close enough she stopped. I don't think she got more than a few drops on her. Dax was a little more brave, and definatly more brave if i would hold him and help him reach the water. But what a great time. Ab had fun swinging with Maddie Kiehl and eating lunch with Sarah. I also ran into Sandy and Pat Clayton! Totally fun seeing their kids and catching up with her. We are going to get together next week. So I took my camera, but never got it out. It was hot and exhasting watching out for the kids.
Abby has been asking to go to Roaring Springs and I told her if she earned and saved 500 tickets that we would go. But after today, I'm not paying 20 plus dollars for her to NOT want to play in the water. So for now, we'll stick with the poor man's version :)
