When we were first planning our trip to Chicago we were looking into going places such as Navy Pier, the zoo, or even the Chicago Children's museum. While I'm sure we would have had a great time at any of them, I'm so glad Aunt Michelle found a place called Mystic Waters! It's a water park that was only 10-ish minutes from our hotel and it was perfect!!! There were several pools, water slides, and even an area to build sand castles! We thoroughly enjoyed our day in the water!!!
Tori wasted no time getting into the water!
It didn't take us long to work our way over to the little kid area- it was awesome! Tori loved the water slide- thanks Aunt Michelle for being her spotter! Even Garrett got to try out the slide!
This little splash pad was just perfect for Garrett!
And it was even great for the bigger kids in our group, too!
Garrett loves the water and is not scared of going under big waterfalls with his Daddy- yeah for our water kid!!!
The sand castle area was pretty fun- it appealed to the kid in all of us!!!
Aunt Michelle and Garrett taking a little break!
Tori loved playing in the sand with the other kids...
but decided that the best place to build a mountain was underneath the turtle!!!
The big pool was so nice- we all enjoyed it!
Yum- time for lunch! During this trip we found out that Garrett absolutely loves cucumbers!!!
The last area we checked out was the lazy river. Who knew we were going to enjoy it so much? We were there for at least an hour- it was so relaxing! Garrett loved riding around with Daddy!
And Tori was in heaven with Grandma!!!
We all had a ball floating, relaxing, and chatting about a gazillion different things!
Thanks so much for the fun day Mom and Michelle- we had a blast!!!
