Lotsa waterpark

Oh man did we cut loose today.  A whole lotta water park after a very cool horseback ride through the woods.  LL treated us all to the horses, which turned out to be very, very cool, then ice cream cones full of corn to feed all these little goat dudes running around in a pen by the stables.

Loaded up on margaritas and pina coladas, we then hit the water parks.  Too many rides on the Black Hole and Hurricane later, we packed up and headed back up to the condo for fajitas.  Unfortunately, LL's crew had to head out after that cause both her and M had to work tomorrow:( 

Still, it was a great day despite the huge lady that wrangled her way into our raft on the hurricane, putting us over the weight limit and nearly killing three of us in a spectacular water ride accident.  But we didn't get squished and lived to tell the tale, eclipsed only by Little Monkey's brave run down the Hurricane and I'll admit that even after nine real hurricanes, that ride is a bit scary.

The remaining crew here is pretty beat.  PW and I are hiding in bed.  The kids and Mr. Bud are still up, but pretty darn quiet.  Actually Mr. Bud and LP are out gigging for frogs in the pond next to the water park just outside our balcony.  I hope LP does NOT come back with one...

Tomorrow I'm taking my Pina Coladas on an extended tour of the Lazy River.

Ack! I forgot to leave the sippy cups for ya'll!! If you go to Kohl's up the highway, they have ones with the gel freezer tubes in them and that will keep the coladas from thawing. Half off. Less than $6 for pretty good sized cups. LOL

Thank you so much for letting me and M and my kids invade and take over your family vacation. We were talking about it on the drive home and we were like, "Oh, we invited ourselves to their family shindig. How rude is THAT??" But it really was the best vacay I've ever had with my kids. Totally.

You guys are the coolest folks around. And I love your kids. All of them. Even the friend of Bud Jr 1, who didn't want to let me hug him goodbye. Saying "I'm not part of the family" does NOT fly with me. haha

I am so jealous! Drink a few margaritas for me, will you? And next year we're coming out to the dells with our own kids...

LL, as I recall, I INVITED you to totally invade our vacaa.

And I'd do it again in a split second.

LL's kids are adorable, despite the words o' warning.

Yoouse guy's rock.

Ok, Off, I'm on wave pool, Hurricane duty.

What happened to roller coasters??

And Steph, you should so come out this way. The best part of this set up is that there are 8 billion lifeguards (who are pretty easy on the eyes) and you can STILL find your favorite BARTENDER while sitting in the sun. I mean.....seriously, there's something awesome about that....

no roller coasters. :(
Mr. Bud was sooo disappointed, well.. somewhat, any ho.
a) teenagers didn't get up till noon.
b) no MILF pools at the roller coaster.
c) LIFE GUARDS are here. in red suits. barely suits really. more like red grape leafs.
