Water Park

We went on our first trip to the water park on Thursday. 

 The first thing Emily wanted to do was conquer the slides she was too afraid to go down last year.  You have to climb up to the slides on the below picture.  Water dumps out from the big bucket at the top every few minutes.  So last year Emily wouldn't even consider going up because of all the water.  But this year she put her head down and took off running.  Normally adults can't go down these slides but the life guard let Joe go down with her once and then she was hooked:

 Here she is going down all by herself:

 

We were so proud!  So then we tried to see if there was a bigger slide she could go down that wasn't in the kids section.  The only one Joe could go down with her was the big innertube ride where you sit in a big innertube with 5 other people and it goes down a big slide.  Like this one:

Emily went down this slide 3 times with Joe and once with me.  She loved it!  It's amazing what a difference a year can make.

Here are the girls waiting for Joe to come down a slide:

 

 

 We always get hungry at the water park:

 We had a great day!  Emily took this picture of us: )

 

Since Abigail didn't have a nap yesterday, she was pretty tired today.  This morning while Emily and I were cleaning up her room, Abigail climbed into her own bed.  I'm pretty sure she used the grocery cart to climb up:
