Birthday Fun!

While not officially summer, and not the official home base for these #PoolDads, it is time for our first outing of the year. It's Isaac's birthday, and we're off to Splash Lagoon in Erie, PA. Should be a fun time! Pictures and updates to come later!

Splash Lagoon here we come!
Arrival at Splash Lagoon and posing with the amazingly lifelike animal art!


This was an absolutely perfect time to visit Splash Lagoon! The crowd was smaller than I've ever seen and wait times were no more than 3-5 minutes for any of the slides. The wave pool was a huge hit with Jaxon and Isaac. . .  that is until a kid puked in it and the pool had to be evacuated! Kind of gross, but to be expected at a place like this.

While the slides and wave pool were great, the biggest hit for the boys was the giant tiki bucket. Every time the alarm sounded indicated the bucket was about to dump, these boys took off running, no matter where we were or what we were doing! On a funny note, the alarm tone has changed since we were last there, making it easier to mimic. Obviously, Judd had to try this and at one point fooled several kids into running to the spill zone and waiting for several minutes until they realized the bucket was not dumping! Hilarious!!!



Five hours of swimming and sliding later, we ended the day in the arcade. Jaxon, on his first attempt of the evening at a ticket game, scored 350 tickets! Quite the impressive showing.


Lots of fun had by all! Stay tuned for more adventures with the #PoolDads.
