Day 3 - Splash Country

On day three of our trip to The Great Smoky Mountains we went to "Splash Country" which is Dollywoods water park. It was a really cool water park with tons of rides for little kids and big kids. It had a great water playground with two slides for kids under 48". They even let me slide down the slides holding Coral. The slide said that it was a slow moving slide but when you're 8 months pregnant, and lets not mention how heavy, you can go pretty darn fast. Coral loved it and would smile and say wheee... all the way down. It wore me out fast though climbing up and holding her over and over again.
We asked Shelbie today what her favorite part of our trip was and without hesitation she said Splash Country. Her and Leland just held hands the whole time and you never saw one without the other. They rode every single ride that they could and were happy all day long. Above is Shelbie going down one of the slides. She kept telling me that she was going to go down the slide 5 more times and after 5 times was up she would tell me that she was going to go down it 5 more times, so cute!
Coral has always loved the water and this was the only picture we could get of her cause she was playing and moving around so much. Claire was really sweet and was trying hard to play with her. It's always fun to see a smile on your kids faces!
Here's the three oldest playing in the smaller kids area waiting to go on some bigger rides. They just went and went and went and thank goodness Tillia and Big Daddy had the energy to go with them. I was amazed at the big slides that they were going down and loving every minute of it!
I love my boy!
