June 08 - Penni and Kevin Visit - Part 3 - Splash Park

One of the the kids' favorite activities we did with Grandpa and Grandma was going to a splash park one afternoon. Krystin took a little while to warm up, but once she did she was not to be stopped.

Ethan enjoyed the sprays, but didn't ever desire to go under the dumping buckets.

Of course, Ethan's favorite part about the splash park was pushing the buttons to make the water turn on :)

This was by far the girls - especially Krystin's favorite site.

Krystin would walk around and around trying to catch the spray with her cup. When the water stopped she would peer intently into the cup to see how much (about 1/2 cup) she caught.

I love the hand expression Mom (Penni) caught in this photo.

Which reminds me, 1/2 of these photos Mom took - Thanks Mom.

Taking a little break
Ahh - there she is. Photographer in action :)
Kaylin was being pretty brave with the water, and expressed a slight, maybe interest in going under the dumping buckets. SO....

Mom (Britt) decided it was time to stretch her bravery and take her under

The anticipation....

The aftermath ! ! !

I was really pleased. Kaylin ended up being a good sport about it. And even bragged about how she was "so brave". Of course, when asked if she wanted to do it again, the anser was No :)

Ethan met up with a Kindergarten buddy.
Since Mom (Penni) was so often behind the lense, I thought I would post this nice picture of her and Kevin at the water park.
The long trek back to the van.

All Kaylin's braver wore her out...
