Schlitterbahn!

This weekend, we went to Schlitterbahn with our special family friends, the Laich family and the King family. It was a fun time! (Except when the Galveston water plant had a fire and we couldn't check into our hotel for 2 hours, when sister fell and bumped her head HARD and Mommy and Daddy worried about a concussion for half the day, and when someone pooped in the pool and closed down a section of Schlitterbahn.) Except for those things, of course.

We spent 2 days at the park, and Sister and Daddy rode big slides. Mommy and I bonded in the lazy river, the splash pad, and over a nap in the stroller. We also got to go to Rainforest Cafe, where Sister learned the hula (well, she learned 3 steps before getting intimidated and quitting) and became awestruck by the volcano on top of the restaurant.

Mommy and Daddy adore their friends and are so thankful for Year 2 of our newest McClinton family tradition: travel with friends. We kiddies all played so well together (yes, even me!), and Miss Shannon said yesterday when they got home, Alyssa looked up and asked, "Where's the rest of our family?" We may not be related, but those are some special friends!


Love,
Kate Water Bug McClinton
