i saw an idea on pinterest to get some potty prizes

and give them for going potty.

we went to target today and i bought some prizes thinking we would

start potty training soon.

 we had such a great couple of days!!! 

it all started after church.  we told the kids we were going to go on a drive.

little did they know we packed all our swim suits and stuff

and we were on the way to the waterpark of america!!

it was so fun!!  they kids kept on asking what we were doing

and if we could just go home.

i told them to find someplace they wanted to stop.

once they saw the hotel, they freaked out!

they were so excited.

 

i didn't take to many pictures because we were busy having fun!!

there were bunk beds in the room and the kids thought they was super cool!

so did brett and i!

they had a lazy river, a wave pool, basketball pool with a walk across bridge.

a cool kids place with little slides for kids.
