Spring Creek Park

This morning we loaded up around 8:45 and headed to the park to play. We wanted to beat the heat!! Spring Creek Park recently redid all of their playgrounds. Ava and Mike had already seen them, but this was my first time. On the way there Mike told me there was a new slide that was over 30ft tall. I didn't believe him...but I should have. Check out this playground:


That slide looked like something you stand in line to ride on at Six Flags. Of course he dared me to go down it. He actually dared me to take Ava down it, like he did last time. First he had to go down...and he survived, see:


I didn't want to back down from the dare so I asked Ava to go down the slide with me. We partnered up and started climbing the stairs:


We got all the way up there and she backed out. She must have remembered her last voyage on it! I handed her off to Mike and decided to go down myself. Holy cow that slide is tall and fast! Oh and apparently you need to wear atleast knee length shorts on it. As I am picking up speed I take a turn and you her that painful skin screech...I turned around to see if my butt cheek was still in the slide...my goodness that hurt! Mike asked me if I was ok when I got out. Those tubes echo so I am sure the entire park heard my butt screech! :)

Here are a few other pictures of us playing on various areas of the park...





After we were done we went on a hike around the creek...it was a lot of fun!
