The Splash Pad

Saturday, we met Atticus and Tricia up at the Euless Splash Pad for some morning playtime. When we first got there, it was open but we couldn't get the water turned on. So Tricia called the number on the sign and we waited for someone to come and fix it.

While we waited, we snacked on some cookies and they ran around the Splash Pad chasing each other.

That yellow pole has a sensor that you touch to get the water to come back on. It usually stays on for 15 minutes and automatically shuts off until someone hits it again. They told us to hit it really hard, so we used our shoes, rocks, whatever we could find to hit it.

Then, Patrick showed up and came to our rescue. Apparently, the main source for the water hadn't been turned on.

Let there be water!

So the playdate finally began. Most of these don't need explanations. It was just fun seeing them run around and play.

Sophia brought Atticus his water. What a little helper.

And of course, there was a little pull up crack.

For some reason, Sophia wanted to take off her swimsuit bottoms. I don't know why.

And then we went to Burger King.

After that, we headed over to Nana and Paw-Paw's house to visit. They're leaving on a trip on Sunday and won't see her for a whole week.

While there, cousin Jack, Aunt Amy and Uncle Jay showed up for a swim.

Have a safe, fun trip mom and dad!
