Yesterday we (Mom, Dad, Aiden, Lia and I) met up with Jake, Kesha & boys(+Patrick) & Lori and kids at the new Rec center to play in their HUGE indoor pool. It was my first time there and I was amazed at this place. The pool had a HUGE play area with slides and a huge water pail that tipped every few minutes drenching everyone within 30 feet with a tidal wave of water. It also had a small play area over to the side for smaller kids that only sat in about 1.5 feet of water. They had the coolest thing for babies... it's kinda like a jump-a-roo set up that you can put them in and let them jump and splash to their hearts content in about a foot of water without having to hold them. Unfortunately Trent is about 3 months too young for this right now. They also have a lazy river that we floated in endlessly that runs in a circle outside then back in. The entire back wall opens up and there is a splash pad and sun deck with a huge BBQ area. Inside there is also a gigantic water slide (which i didn't go on but that mom insisted was great) and a lap pool. There was seriously so much for the kids to do and not much to worry about as the deepest part of the play area pool/ lazy river is only 3.5 feet deep. We put the smaller kids in life vests but the big kids were allowed to "swim" on their own as they could touch bottom anywhere in the pool. The boys loved playing in the lazy river. Jake was in there with a few of them and got separated from Aiden, who got stuck in the crossing currents and couldn't push past into the river. Jake had to wait and grab him as he passed back around. Jake said Mr. Never met a stranger Aiden was asking everyone that passed "excuse me Mr. can you push me in the river". He didn't have to wait long for Jake to get him, it only takes about a minute to get all the way around.
In intervals I would go upstairs to catch up with my RR's who were playing Orange County in a double header. Lets just say I was never too pleased with what I heard. They had a bad night last night and were SHUT OUT back to back! That has never happened before. I don't know what the deal is but they just can't seem to get their bats going. Kinda sucks when everyone hits a slump at the same time. They are hanging onto first place in our division by a few games but it's getting a little close for comfort. Hope they shake themselves loose soon. And hope that someone chokes their sportscaster. At least I'll be at the next couple of games and won't have to listen to him.
