The Hottest Coolest Place in Texas

If you live in Texas, you've heard the jingle for Schlitterbahn's! Its the HOTTEST COOLEST PLACE IN TEXAS! WE'RE GOING TO SCHLITTERBAHNS! :)

This last week, we had a fun family day at Schlitterbahn's at South Padre Island. Brett always gets free tickets from work. We went last year and had a blast! We thought it would be a great time for Kayla, as water parks go. As we remembered, you stay on your tube the entire time floating the lazy river and there are several slides that shoot off it. We thought we could hold Kayla on our laps and that she'd have a blast - she loves the pool, after all. We found the smallest life vest they had. It was still pretty large on her. I think she didn't how little she could move in it. As soon as we got on the lazy river, we were told every 30 seconds by the lifeguards that there was no lap riding and that Kayla needed to sit in her own half of the double tube. I thought that was a bit interesting since she's only 6 months old! Anyway, she didn't love the lazy river. We took her down a slide off the lazy river while on our tubes and we got splashed too much for her liking. We took her into the kiddy splash section and she liked that much better! We walked out to the beach and played in the gulf for a bit. They also have a new indoor section with another calmer lazy river. Kayla sat there with a look of tolerance the entire time. It was actually pretty funny. Kayla did really great for being outside all day long. She's a pretty good sport. :)

Enjoy a few pictures of our fun day! Don't mind the less than flattering photos of me. Swimsuits have never been my friend, haha!

Kayla was ready to be done with the lazy river.

Look how big the life jacket was on her!

Kayla really enjoyed the splash pad area the most!

She would climb right up on the sea shells to play in the water.

She really loves her Papi!

She didn't like the slide though.
