Splishy Splashy Splash Pad

One day Josh and I decided to take the kids over to one of the many Splash Pad Parks here.  It was HOT so the water kept them cool, we were hungry afterwards and so we ate a little picnic lunch I packed up.  :) 

Good times!

Amanda and Emily jump RIGHT in,

Sam took a few minutes to get wet

 but soon he was right in there with them.

Amanda havin' FUN

I didn't even THINK to put Izzy in a swimsuit,

honestly I am still trying to figure out how I forgot about that!?

At home she HATES baths, but she does love getting

sprayed with the hose in the backyard.

Weird.

At least she only had this little dress on, so it was just

find to get wet in!

She loves to put her fingers in the spray,

she does it with the sprinklers in the backyard

every time she gets the opportunity!

She would play with the spray

then RUUUUUUUUUUN back to me!

So cute!

These fountains of water shoot out at different

intensities, heights, and timing...

it took awhile for Izzy to want to approach them

And when she did she got sprayed in the face!

HA HA HA!

So she went back to the reliable always

spraying water over here!

I {heart} this pic.

Oh, and every time she would run back to me

she would hug my leg...I was soaked all the

way through my clothes! :D

Daddy hanging out with Izzy

Amanda and Emily trying to guess which places the

water would shoot out next...

Basically Emily ran around in circles like 80% of the time!

Silly girl!

Eventually Sam said he was cold.

So OBVIOUSLY we have been living in the desert for TOO long!

It was a fun little trip and we are going to do it again

before the splash pads are shut off for the 'winter'.
