So after we got there and I unpacked all of our stuff (does anyone else unpack when they stay somewhere? I feel more at home or something when I do that...and it's just fun) we got our suits on and hit the water. With our passes we had access to like 4 indoor and 4 outdoor parks so that's basically where we stayed the rest of the vacation. The kids LOVED it, especially Alexa. And I'm not going to lie, Matt and I had so much fun too...do I dare say more fun? It did not take Alexa long to just jump in and go. I wasn't sure if she would or I would want her going down the big slides but after about 10 minutes of day one she was flying down them all by herself. I had so much fun just watching her literally scream for hours from pure joy! Braden spent quite a bit of time getting wet too. I think his favorite part was sitting on my lap floating down the lazy river waving to everyone. He made more friends in 4 days then I have my entire life, I guess that's what big blue eyes and chubby checks can do, huh? Anyway, the weekend was perfect. We had fun just relaxing and hanging out and not thinking about anything else. The best part? Our children were angels! The entire time! We still can't believe it. Just kidding....kinda. :)
I actually didn't get too many pictures from the weekend because: a) I didn't want to get my camera wet or taken, and b) I was just having too much fun. Here are a few I did get.

That place looks incredible. I really want to go up there. Now I'm thinking I really need to talk Doug into it. Although I'm not sure either of us is ready to give up our trip to Fl. :)
The pictures you got are great. I love the kids playing in the shower. Alexa in her flip flops is so cute.
I love reading your blog and seeing how much you love your kids. Some days when I'm just burnt out and done being mommy I get a new wind from reading your posts. You are such a blessing to this stranger.
I have heard so much about that place. We wanted to go a few years ago and just never made it there. One of these days. Cute pictures. I love the last one. Too cute. They look thrilled to be there...having a blast!
You can't beat a free getaway! Looked like you all had a blast. (Thank you also for your kind words on my "bully" posts :-)
It looks SO much fun!!! Glad you had the chance to get away before Matt had to start school!!
That last picture reminds me of the line from a song from The Newsboys...
"Whereever we go, that's where the party's at!!"
That sure does define life for your two precious babies!!! haha
What a great way to end the summer. So glad you all had a good time.
