Our first time at a water park

Our cousins took us to Six Flags White Water in Atlanta. I'm not sure I would recommend such an adventure if you have non-swimmers but we still had a great day!
The park provided life vests and this mommy was very happy that the kids happily wore them since Jason is the only swimmer in this crew.
Jill loved the water. Here we are relaxing together in the wave pool.
We were watching Jason and our cousins ride the waves (see him there with the blue top in a tube riding a wave?)
The treehouse had a big bucket of water that poured out periodically.
But my other three wanted nothing to do with the waterfall!
There's Jason behind the water...
And then Simeon and Jason dancing in the rain...
Jason, again my only swimmer, loved the water park and did not want to leave, ever. He rode many waterslides (no pictures because I was off with the little ones except for this one slide that I got to ride, too. It was a single person tube down a rapids. All in all a pretty mellow slide but enough of a thrill to satisfy me :)
Troy watched the little ones while I went on the waterslide, and he proudly got Jill to sleep with no paci, quite the accomplishment! Thank you Uncle Troy!
So what do non-swimmers do at a water park? They play in the Wiggles splash area, no life vests or swimming required! By the way, cousin Talia is a great swimmer but wanted to spend the day with Beth :)
Adam loved this part of the park. It was all just his size. He didn't want to go anywhere but Wiggles World!
Thank you to all our cousins for inviting us along and taking Jason on waterslides with you and just being great!
Older cousins are really nice to have around. Here Zemenay played with Adam in Wiggles World before we called it a day...and now if we could just get Adam swimming (I think it'll happen this summer) it could be worth going back again soon!
