Water park!

We had so much fun going to the water park in Moses Lake. It had a lot of fun things, plus it was relatively cheap! Bob even had a lot of fun, which is saying something! Our boys loved it and they wore themselves out. Neither of them have ever taken swim lessons before, but they did really well in the water. (They love our pool in the backyard.) Bystanders were calling Rex a little fish. My kids were some of the only ones that would go face first into the water. Then Rex started going down the slide and would stand up at the bottom to jump off the end of the slide to use it like a diving board. He had some pretty good dives!
Here is Eli going down the slide. He loved splashing in the water.
Here is Rex swimming. By the end of the day his eyes were killing him. They were so red from the chlorine. He has no qualms about putting his head under water. He is learning to swim all by himself. I think I should sign him up for a class anyway. He would have a lot of fun.
Our good friend, Ryan Penrod, came to visit us from Chicago. He was Bob's best man at our wedding. We actually all worked together at college. He came out here for Hoopfest in Spokane. (Their team didn't do so hot this year, don't bring it up :) So he was able to come to the waterpark with us. He does a good job playing with the kids. They call him Uncle Penrod.
Here is Bob and Rex chillin' on the lazy river. We would take breaks throughout the day and hang out on the intertubes. I had the camera (of course) so you don't see the pics of me with Asa.
