Happy Birthday Emmy!


Aunt Emmy's birthdays are always so fun. She plans something fun to do with the kids every year. This time Grandma and Rice booked us all rooms at a fun hotel up by the E-Center. We've driven by this hotel plenty of times owing and awing. From the freeway you can see it's big water slide coming right out of the building. It's like a mini indoor water park. The kids were soooooo excited! Just a little heads up if you go... kiddos have to be 48" tall to ride the big slide....this was devastating for a certain little teeny tiny named Ava. After dinner that night she ran right back to the pool to see if she had grown enough. :( No luck, but she still had a blast. The slide is pretty creepy at night. It's pitch black and you have no idea where you're headed. Oh and the hot tub (my personal favorite) was awesome! The continental breakfast was really good too! Scrambled eggs, omelets, ham, bacon, yummy cinnamon rolls, cereal, fruit...the works! Two big thumbs up for this place...especially when you're good and ready for winter to be OVER!!!

After breakfast and more swimming we drove up the planetarium to look around and take in a cool 3D movie. The kids loved it. The movie was about the Hubble telescope. It was awesome! Thanks Emmy, Grandma and Rice for the "summer fun" weekend get-a-way!
