tempe splash park

finally. it's open! we love the tempe splash park, and water area designed for little kids to play and get wet and have a grand ol' time. what a great way to break up the heat in the valley. best part is the park is only a few miles down the road, and entirely free!

otho was so cute with ellie. he wanted to help her enjoy herself at the water park. she was a little scared at first, but he took her by the hand and led her down the baby slide. what a great big brother.


otho helping ellie onto the slide...


he sits her in position...


they pause to take a picture with the camera...


and down they go!


now, during this time, abe found a friend in a rock. he sat and played with that rock the entire time, even going down the slide with it.


he had a blast in the cool, refreshing water!


ellie soon got the hang of having fun in the water (as long as she wasn't splashed). we can't wait to go back and spend more time at the beach park...that is, until baby #4 comes. so we should be there a lot in the next few weeks.

It was so fun to see you guys at the splash park. I am sorry I missed you chewing out the bratty kids. Can you believe with all the crying Michael did at getting splashed he threw a huge fit when it was time to go...
