The kids had a blast playing on all the toys, you would think they've never been to a park before. This one was pretty cool because of the red rocks and mountains behind us.
This horse was the first thing Jantzen got on. He thought it was awesome! He quickly got off though when he saw Jaron getting on the see-saw, so that's where he ended up next.
It was funny seeing these two play on the see-saw because Jaron couldn't kick hard enough to get Jantzen's feet to touch the ground, so he did all the work while Jantzen enjoyed hanging out in the air.
Next up was the swings. Jaron and Jantzen had a turn and then Jaron and Zeben had a turn together. I'm so proud of Jantzen, he can finally make himself swing really good so I don't have to push him anymore...yay for me!
While the boys played on the toys, Jaedyn just relaxed in her stroller...that is until her dad came to play. She loves it when he lifts her up in the air, then he drops and catches her, she giggles so much! She had fun hanging out and swinging with her dad.
After the kids played for a while, we decided to explore and go for a hike up the mountains/rocks. Jann and Spencer headed up with the kids while Josh and I took our time climbing with Jaedyn.
There were a lot of fun caves for the kids to play in on the way up. It wasn't a long hike, but it took me longer because I had decided to wear flip flops instead of shoes like I made the boys wear, I know, smart huh?
When Josh and I caught up to everyone, the boys were throwing rocks off the edge of a cliff. As soon as I saw them my heart sank into my stomach. I am deathly afraid of heights and I was freaked out, thinking they were going to fall off the cliff and I couldn't help them because I'm so afraid...I hate feeling that way. I just yelled at them to move back and Josh went and got them for me. I couldn't handle the rest of the trail because it was so close to the edge, so I walked back and took the long way around and met up with everyone at the end.
After the kids had had enough hiking, we headed back down the hill to go swimming in the campground pool. The boys had just as much fun running down the mountain as they did climbing up it. Jaron, Jantzen, and Zeben raced down a ditch and then Jaron and Jantzen had a contest to see who could jump up the side of the ditch the fastest. I don't remember who won, they both did pretty good.
I guess we wore little miss Jaedy Bug out...she fell fast asleep on our walk back to camp, so we let her have a little nap in her stroller under the shade of a tree. She was sleeping so peaceful, even with the noisy boys running around.
We then took the kids to the pool to cool off a bit. As you can see, Jaedyn didn't like it very much, but Jaron and Jantzen loved it! Jantzen did a lot of dancing and dunking himself, which he was very proud of, and Jaron enjoyed jumping in the deep end and then taking a break to enjoy the hot tub. Jantzen thought the hot tub was too hot, so he didn't get in very much.
The boys enjoyed some splashing time with Zeben...
...and then Jantzen decided he would be brave and go all the way around the pool by just holding on to the edge, he didn't have a life jacket on. He did good with it for a while and then one time while at the deepest part of the pool he let go. I totally freaked out because I saw him just splashing. I ran over to him to find him keeping himself up pretty good, but I pulled him to the side anyway and told him that was enough. I think two almost heart attacks for me in one day is just a little too much!
While the boys enjoyed the pool this is what Jaedyn was doing...chilling out with dad, showing us all how flexible she is. She's so stinking cute!
When the boys had had enough of the pool we left and got ready to go to the beach....
