Welcome to the islands, mon!

Ok, so we didn't go to Jamaica, but we did have a 'mommie funday' at Lake Lanier Islands and water park! For those of you that know me well, water parks are not my forte. I'm more of a lake lizard/river rat and not so keen on sharing 'clean' water space with hundreds of other people. However, having 2 adventurous 6-year-olds, some fears need to be conquered. And we had fun!

First stop was Krispy Kreme for a little breakfast snack. I couldn't get Nolan to wear a hat but Reed was right on board!

After about an hour drive (and the boys doing math homework the entire time) we arrived around 10am. We rode water slides one after the other, swam in the lake, rode carney rides and had a lovely lunch on the veranda. It was a beautiful day and not very crowded (which I loved) and it was...wait for it....here it comes....relatively clean! We didn't leave the park until close to 7pm after the boys rose the tilt-a-whirl 3 times, yes, 3 times and on the last time, Reed came up to me holding his stomach. Ha! A little too much for ya, bud?!! He said he felt like he was going to throw up the whole ride home. Nolan said, "it's his fault! He kept asking the guy to make us go faster!"  Lesson learned, young grasshopper. Now he knows why mommie didn't ride it and why she calls it the tilt-a-hurl!!
