On our last day, we took the kids to a splash park. We were going to take them to a big water park, but it was a bit too chilly (partly cloudy in the 70s). Even the splash park was a little too cold (so I heard, I didn't get wet!). But the kids enjoyed it, especially when Daddy went in with them.
Kyle is not a big fan of splash parks where water is shooting out from all different unpredictable directions. He stayed by Daddy's side the whole time.
While we were all at the water park, Makena went over to the playground and tried to master the monkey bars. It was very unlike her as she's usually a little more timid and would only do it if we were near by to help. She did a great job and almost made it across.
After the park, Kyle took a short nap while Aunt Stephanie took the girls shopping. She wanted to buy them new bathing suits. The girls came back with new suits, a couple dresses, a watch AND clothes for Kyle.
While the girls were gone, Kyle took a short nap. He was still tired and fell asleep in my lap while we watched TV. Such a rare moment for him to fall asleep in my arms! I loved it!
Here are some of the things the girls got on their shopping trip.
We finished off the day with ice cream treats at Oberweiss. It was a chilly, rainy night but we didn't mind!
The next morning, we were back on the road. It took another 16 1/2 hours to get back home. The kids did great in the car. We all had a great time on our vacation, and the kids have been asking to go back to Aunt Stephanie's house since!
