One week ago, we went to Enchanted Forest Water Safari in Old Forge, NY. We went with my parents, sister Karlyn and her husband, Ti, and the Krantz's. 15 of us altogether. It was a lot of fun and was pretty good weather. A little on the cool side, but warmed up as the day went on. Perfect because that meant little to no wait on rides. To save you from boredom by explaining everything that we experienced, I've posted a bunch of pictures so that you can share our joy by wishing that you had been there with us. (By the way, we wish that you had been there with us...why didn't you come? Maybe next time. Call us!)
As a cute little side note: the night before we went Ty kept on asking to go to the waterpark. (Next time we'll just take him and not let him know about it ahead of time.) Anyway, he wouldn't go to sleep because he was too excited. Dane finally explained to him that it was dark out, and after he went to sleep he would wake up and it would be light out and then we would go to the waterpark. So, the next morning I went in and woke Ty up. Upon opening his eyes, he quickly looked out his window and said "Light!" Maybe he does understand some of what we're saying!
Ty's first waterslide.
Going down a kid's waterslide with a tube.
After Ty went down a couple kiddie waterslides, he saw this one and wanted to go on it next. The funny thing is, is that I'm sure he would've done it again and again!
I watched as Ty ran over to these candy canes and proceeded to lick them.
The whole group.
Mommy and Libby.
And again.
I love how Ty's taking this boating thing seriously and Soren's just there for the ride.
Always check your blind spot before changing lanes.
Libby took almost a 2 hour nap in my mom's arms. It was amazing!
While Libby was napping, I got to go on some rides with Ty. Here's the Tilt-O-Whirl.
Here's Dane with Libby on the Lazy River.
Baby girl!
The twins.
Why can't my kids both look good in the same picture?
Just the two of us.
After the day was done...I think we all look pretty rough!
Granddad and Libby.
Libby loved this swing!
Wow...you made it! To reward you, I've added this little video of Ty going down a waterslide there. He loved it. The kids would all line up and "race" down. However, Ty and Soren always wanted to wait until they were ready, and then they would go down. Ty always went down pretty much spread all out. It was quite amusing to watch him with a slight look of terror on his face right before he splashed into the water.

looks like good times! although I thought the jingle went: ...where the fun never starts...because it's always raining and cold!
well, wish I could have gone - maybe if you'd called me, I'd have come out! and btw, I called you about slings, and we didn't even touch the subject - I'll be calling on Saturday...
Thank you for the great pictures and video. That was a fun day!
How fun, I'm definitely jealous. I want to go to a waterpark so bad but there aren't any decent ones in Alberta! It looks like your kids had a blast. They are too cute!
I know what you mean about not wanting to tell Ty about going to the waterpark until the day you guys do go. We told Sierra we were going up to Stephen and Janessa's about a week before and she wouldn't stop asking if we were going yet.
Wow this gave me flashbacks to when I was little- we used to go there almost every summer! It looked like such a fun trip, and I lOVED the video!!!!
Very fun day. I LOVE that white dress you have on. So cute on you! And it took me a long time to find Andreia in the picture before I saw her hiding. Good looking group. :) We're coming next time!
