Spring Break / Splash lagoon, Niagara Falls

Mckayla had a week off for spring break, so we decided that we were going to take a few days and enjoy them together. We headed up to Erie PA, were we stayed at Splash Lagoon. This was such a fun place. It was a indoor waterpark, with four different hotels connected to it. We stayed at the Residence Inn. The kids had a blast. Matt wanted to make sure we got the most of our money, so he had the kids running from the moment the park was open to the moment it was closed, or close to it. We have never seen our kids with such big appetites from running all day, and so exhausted that as soon as they hit their pillows they were out. Maybe a little to much fun in the day because Isaiah woke up with jumpy legs, and it took us a little bit, and a blessing for him to finally receive some comfort. All in all the kids absolutely loved the water park, and our vacation.

We just arrived at the hotel. A hotel stay isn't a hotel stay unless you get to ride the luggage cart. This is definitely one of the highlights for our kids.

This is our family shot in front all the water slides.

This slide was so cool. It starts out as a regular slide, then in the middle of the slide it opens up to what looks like a big toliet bowl, and you circle around until you go in the hole, and then you continue down the slide. This is McKayla and Matt circling around the toilet bowl.

Here is Sethey scaling his way up to the top. The boy has no fear, at least when it comes to climbing. This is his first time making his way up to dad. Great job Seth!!

We spent two days at this water park, and we could not get Seth to go down these slides. He was content enough to splash around in the water. Finally midway through the second day he finally got brave enough to go down the slide, and then he went down again, and again, and again. I lost count after 30 times down. I am so glad he finally got brave enough!

Isaiah got brave, and went down this waterslide. He went over and over again.

This is Isaiah showing me his back flip in the water.

Mckayla loved swinging across the lily pads.

These pictures are from the hotel swimming pool, which is different from Splash Lagoon. Now this was my kind of swimming pool. The water was so warm. I hate getting into water that is slightly luke warm, and this pool, was on the verge of hot. I could of hung out all day at this pool. Here we have Mckay sporting her new Ariel swim suit.

Isaiah just enjoying his swim.

Here is Seth playing catch with dad.

Here we are in front of Niagara Falls. It was an amazing sight. It is such a beautiful piece of God's creation. I was so excited to do the Maid of the Mist boat ride, but to my disappointment, it was not open yet. It was still to early in the season to do it. The sad thing is, it was going to open up a week later. Just our luck. We had to also stay on the American side because I did not have a current passport. It was all so beautiful regardless. We did however get to watch movie about the story, and history of Niagara Falls. It was fun, and the kids seemed to like it as well.
