What more could you ask for in life? Water slides & pancakes. Well, this dream came true for three young boys who's names are....Benjamin, Henry & Heber Theurer. Matt and I decided instead of toys this past Christmas, we would give the nephews a day of swimming and a delicious meal at IHOP. Boy did this go over well! They were bouncing off the walls with excitement. We had originally planned to go to the Fairmont Aquatic Center, but it was closed for the day. Thankfully, there is a similar pool out near Cottonwood Mall. There are lap pools, kid play areas, a lazy river and the best water slide ever! I was so jealous of everyone going down the slide. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, water slides. I thought it wasn't a good idea to take a ride, being 8 months pregnant and all. So I watched with envy. Ben went down about a thousand times, and Henry went down even more times than that! We had to coach Heber to go down the kiddie slide, and finally success! We dined later that day at a lovely IHOP. Ben ordered All-You-Can-Eat-Pancakes and Henry wolfed down 5 1/2 giant triangles of french toast. It was a really fun day. Kate and her daughter Hazel even joined in on the swimming fun. Hazel wasn't to sure about all the crazies in the pool...I think she wanted to go home.
