Water Park of America

So Lola had decided to buy us all tickets to the Water Park of America because she had decided not to go to Kalahari Resort in WI Dells this Summer. She usually goes there for a Doctor's Convention but there was too much going on the weekend it was scheduled for. So she felt bad that the grand kids didn't get to go this year. We bought the tickets a couple weeks or so ago and she got a room too. Well, she decided to go visit Lolo in Florida this weekend instead of going to the water park. Everything was paid for so we all went without her. The kids had a ton of fun and so did the adults. We got there at 10am and we didn't leave until 6:30pm or so. It was a really nice water park. Nicer than than the one in Brooklyn Park. The water was cool but not as cold as as the one in Brooklyn Park. Right away when we got there Jon and Nicholas played in the zero entry area with the smaller slides and fun water stuff. It also had the lazy river, and basketball pool, a wave pool, the bigger slides and the surf thingy. I don't think anyone tried the surf thingy but it was cool to watch people. The big hit was the big family tube slide. All the kids loved going down it. I was able to get some good pictures of that slide. Enjoy the pics and videos.

Bella's turn!


Isn't she cute?!

The big family tube slide. These pictures are of Mike going on with Jon, Anthony & Nicholas.






Here is a video of Auntie Tesa going down with Maria and Bella. They came down right after the guys. It is really dark at the end but you can see the yellow life vest jumping up and down and hear the kids cheering, "Again! Again!"


This time Mike went down with all the kids!









They had SO much fun on this ride!

She didn't mind the water being cool. She didn't even make a funny face when I put her in! I think she is going to be like Jon and how he loves being in the water!

Here is a video of Mike, TJ & Noah playing basketball
