Alabama Adventures

Yesterday we ventured to a water and theme park just a half hour outside of town. We weren't sure what to expect and it was a bit cheesy, but it didn't matter because Blake had the time of his life and Addie went into a pool for the first time!
It was a pleasant 96 degrees out, so cooling off in a pool couldn't have been more refreshing. We must have spent almost 2 hours splashing around. Then we headed over to the rides, where we probably put Blake on 10 different ones at least. The kiddie bumper cars were the most hilarious though...as an adult we all know how they work, but I'm sure many of us have had our fair share of getting stuck. Well, poor little Blake only knew how to get stuck. The attendant continued to go over and help him and would turn his wheel, but then he never turned it back, so he just went around and around in a circle with the most confused possible look on his face. We couldn't help but crack up laughing and finally he said "all done" and hopped right off.

Needless to say after a super intensely hot day of fun and excitement at Alabama Adventures, our little man conked out within minutes of getting in the car. Little Addie took a nap in the stroller for almost half of the time we were at the park.
Today, Blake has asked to go back to the park only about 10 times or more!

Now that Daddy is home with us for a few weeks before starting up his fellowship, we are trying to pack as many fun family events in as we can. We have a great list of upcoming activities planned. Stay tuned for more "Alabama Adventures!"
