The Final "Summer of Swim" - Schlitterbahn!!!!!

Our main water activity this summer has been multiple trips to Schlitterbahn, which we absolutely loved! I feel very fortunate to live in a town that is home to one of the biggest and best waterparks in the United States, and even more fortunate that we have season passes! We can literally hop in our car and be at the waterpark within 5 - 10 minutes, season pass in hand, ready to play and stay cool in the water!

We spent at least one day a week, and sometimes up to three times a week, at the waterpark! The best part is you can bring your own cooler in the park, so I'd pack lunch and drinks for the kids and me and we'd spend the morning playing, eat lunch , play some more until 1 or 2, head home, and 9 times out of 10 BOTH kids would fall asleep, resulting in some much enjoyed quiet time for Mommy!

A couple of our friends also had season passes, so we would regularly meet up with them. The kid areas at Schlitterbahn really are amazing for young kids...not just one little section like some places, there are lots of areas designed just for little ones and they are all over the parks. I seemed to forget my camera most of the summer but did manage to take some pics the last few times we went. Naturally, I have a lot of pictures posted below but they barely give a glimpse of all the cool stuff the kids got to explore this summer at Schlitterbahn. We will definitely be getting passes next summer!
