Swimming, swimming, and Lagoon!

We have had one busy summer! Before summer comes along I always have a list of things I want to do before the summer is over and I think I usually accomplish one..maybe two things. Well besides the stuff around the house that isn't quite as fun, we have managed to do almost everything..and then some.  My only last goals for the end of the summer is to make it to the zoo and go camping one more time. Hopefully we can get those done and I can say that it was one awesome summer! I am lucky to have a little girl who is pretty good at chilling while we do all the fun stuff. Anyway, the past week we went to Seven Peaks, Roy Aquatic center, and Lagoon. I think Korbin must have been in heaven!
 We have been lucky enough to make it to Seven Peaks four times this year (season pass) and everytime has been a blast. This last time we left Aubree with Super Grandma (Steven's grandma) and she was pretty excited to spend time with her. That gave us more time to play without worrying about who was taking care of the little one. Korb was his normal self and went down all the big slides. He also improved his swimming skills and was swimming by himself (with his swimsuit floatie on). I was extremely impressed!



We also went to the Roy Aquatic center for my work party and no surprise..Korbin loved it. I didn't get many pictures there, but he had a blast going down the slides and swimming.

And to top off our busy week.. my sister had a work party at Lagoon and she wasn't able to go so she gave us her tickets. She was able to get us 7 tickets so we thought it was a perfect time to take Korb there and see how he likes it. That way if he ended up hating it we wouldnt have felt like we wasted our money. Well.. Steven and I both worked all day so we were only able to go from like 5:30pm until it closed..and it ended up working great. We stayed until about 8:30pm and that was just about right for all of us. We invited Leslee, Devin, and Makayla, as well as Steven's mom Sylvia. We thought it would be great to get Korb and Makayla together to go on rides and it seemed to work great. They had such a blast! They both loved the rides and were soo good to try any ride. We even got them to try the new BomBora ride. It was great because most of the kiddie rides you have to be 36 inches or taller and both the kiddos were just over 36 inches. But they loved all of them and it was a successful night..well except for the fact that Devin lost his phone on a ride and they found it later.. completely shattered. Sad! Anyway, it was a lot of fun!

 Steven was dropping the car off.. this was the best picture the random girl took.
 First ride..start off easy..the swings. Success!
 Second Ride..lets go up and down and spin around!
 Bulgy the whale.. not his favorite, but still did well.
 This is kind of dark but Korb and I are on the octopus ride.. he liked that one.
 My two men being silly..waiting in line for BomBora
 The two bestest buddies driving their car..
 I thought this was cute.. the back of them and they were both looking the same way.

Looks like lots of fun. My kids loved Lagoon and 7 peaks (once we finally made it there.) Hopefully Korbin doesn't develop more fear once he is a little older and knows better. It is a little fun to have him daring.
