Well, to day was our last day of summer (basically.) :( Tomorrow, I become a 7th grader, Julia becomes a 3rd grader, and Ben becomes a Kindergardener! *Sigh.* Where did the summer go?
Well, today, as sort of a celebration, we went to Splish Splash, the water park 10 minutes away from our house. It was also the last day that Splish Splash was open until Memorial day, 2008. We went on a few rides, which included Splash Landing (your basic twisty water slide), Mammoth River (a larger water slide where you go on rafts that can hold up to 5 people), Lazy River (a giant "river" of a pool where you sit in either double or single inner tubes and float down lazily). I went on Hollywood stunt rider, which is where you sit in a large raft and go down a pitch black water slide! You cannot even see a hand in front of your face!
Our summer was very fun. Tomorrow, we will take "school pictures" in front of what we call our "Charlie Brown Christmas Tree," because it is a very small ("baby") pine tree that we planted in our front yard last year.
Happy Fall!
