Russell Sims on Tuesday

As our kickoff event this summer, we headed up to Bowling Green and to Russell Sims waterpark. It is a local community park that is open to the public and it is great for the kids! They have a huge zero entry pool, a large spray pad, two waterslides that are pretty child friendly and lots of buckets that tip over water and flowers that spray water out. Then for the bigger kids, they have another huge area that is deeper with diving boards. They do not allow you to bring food into the park but there is a large pavalion right outside and a playground where you can go and eat then go back in to swim.

The spray pad, just getting warmed up!

This is the spray pad area and you can see the two water slides in the background.

My baby girl.

Standing in line for the slides. None of her friends would go down with her so she kept going by herself over and over.

Well, Josh went down once and declared at the bottom that "He almost died" going down that slide!

Ladybug loving it!

Ladybug found a girl friend while we were there. That girl amazes me! She can talk to anyone and make friends with anyone.
