This past week at Livi's story time the librarian mentioned that the library was teaming up with the fire department to do a water safety day......all Livi heard was "free pass to the sprinkle park". I really try to limit each kid to two activities a week....Otherwise I would be on the fast bus to Crazy! I asked her what she would rather give up: Open Gym at gymnastics or the Lion Park Playground......she quickly threw gymnastics under the bus.
I am so glad we went. In the parking lot of the library they had all kinds of fire trucks, water slides, and activities for the kids. The YMCA kids Sprinkle park is right next door. Since there so many kids in the parking lot activities....we headed to the sprinkle park. A day care was just leaving, so there were only a handful of kids!
There were all kinds of ways to get wet....little geysers would pop up from the ground. Little arches you could run through would mist you. One tall post thing had buckets that would dump water on the kids underneath when it got full. This was all on just a concrete pad....no pool. So I was not the 'helicopter' parent hovering over her the entire time.
I kind of felt bad for taking Livi while Will was at school. So we are definitely going back this weekend. Since all the rain has stopped, it finally broke 100 degrees here. Welcome to the heat, I guess we are lucky it has been so mild so far.
Happy Friday, y'all.....we will be ordering pizza and trying to stay cool!

Those pics of Livi are awesome! She is a "mini me" of you with just a hint of Mike!!! LOL! Have a great weekend!
I wish that we had something like that around here. Those pictures are to die for.
I've always been hesitant about those sprinkle things too because of the concrete but it sure does look fun. Looks like Livi had a blast.
They just opened something here called "Splash Pad" but I think it's alot like a sprinkle park. Livi is adorable!
