My aunt invited us to go to Lava with them. We are about an hour and a half from Lava, oh I dread car rides by myself, I always try to plan trips around Lily’s nap time but she doesn’t fall asleep until we are 10 minutes from our destination. Oh Lily, it’s a good thing you are cute (Jessica used to say that about Alexander). I wish Chris could have joined us, but you gotta do what you gotta do. And when hubbies aren’t home very much wifies learn how to be very independent.
This is Lava–
Ultimate wedgie slides!
This is my cousin, Ross, jumping off the platform. You have to sign a waiver before you can jump. I didn’t do it, Lily doesn’t let me leave her side. Maybe next time! Serious!
Graceful!
The kiddie land pool is brand new, Elijah loved it!
It’s indoor, I love that! It has garage doors that open in the summer. And it’s open all winter. I think a 5 1/2 year old would love to go there for her birthday.
They keep the water 95 degrees inside, it was perfect!
They have this in the kiddie land, a hot tub that’s not as hot as their hot springs, but still nice!
Elijah was in his element here. You can dam the water and make wheels spin. Elijah loves this kind of stuff, to figure out how things work. Is he a Christopher Junior or what?!
Sweet baby.
This was Savannah’s favorite, the twisty slides! I don’t know how she didn’t pass out from exhaustion after climbing up those stairs I don’t know how many times.
Check out this cool random dude:
He landed perfectly, feet first every time. Can you imagine a belly flop from 33 feet? Ouch! I’m going to do it next time! Hopefully not a belly flop.

It was a fun and tiring day. Thanks to my aunts and mom! We also had some delicious pizza, I have to take Chris if only for the pizza. We miss some of our yummy pizza places in PA, this place beats them all! Idaho-1 Pennsylvania-925,898Â (just kidding)
FYI- If you lose your 3-year-old and tell someone to make an announcement for said missing 3-year-old, they make everyone get out of the pools and they make the kids in the kiddie pool line up and all the life guards get to work. And the mom does cry. I never lose him! His hair practically glows in the dark, he is so easy to pick out in a crowd. We found him within 5 minutes. He was just wondering around. I literally just turned around, that slippery little minx. I knew he wouldn’t get in the pools himself, I was more worried about someone taking him. But, all is well!
Have I mentioned that I love Idaho in the summer? Yes, even though my husband goes to school during most of the lovely summer.
