Monday morning was the warmest day we were there. We got all the kids ready in their swimsuits and headed to the splash pad. The kids, of course, LOVED it! The water was chilly and it was a little breezy, but that didn't stop them from getting wet and having a blast. We grabbed some pizzas for lunch, then headed back to the condo so my girls could nap. I headed to Walmart during their naps and ended up buying a TON of clothes for the kids. They had tons on clearance for $1-3 so I took advantage. After nap time we headed to the rec center and swam ALL night. It was perfect for all the different ages of kids. And Brynlee could finally go down the big slide so that was huge bonus (she's too short for the slides in SLC, but in St. George you just can't go down with a life jacket.). I took her down the slide a few times, then let her try it on her own and helped teach her how to swim to the side. She did great! So then Josh took Brielle down the slide. That was a big mistake. HUGE mistake. When he shot out at the bottom he failed to lead with his feet enabling him to stand up and hold Brielle above the water. Instead he went in bum first and got sucked down to the bottom, dragging poor Brielle with him. She was NOT a fan of that. In fact she was absolutely terrified of the slide. So of course I had to force her to go down with me so I could show Josh how to NOT drown our child. She still didn't love it, but was less terrified after that. We showered the kids, grabbed dinner, and headed back to the condo for another relaxing evening!
