Mont Cascades!





On Friday we went to Mont Cascades water park. We were gonna go to the new one near us but it's not done yet and it's $30 where as Mont Cascades was having a 20th anniversary sale of $10 per person.

The weather was not that great, cloudy, cool and threatening rain all day, but that just meant there was less people there, which meant the lines for the water slides were also less! I think the longest anyone waited in line was 2-3 minutes.

The water was COLD but after a few rides you got used to it fairly quickly. I'm not a big rides person (read: a big chicken lol) so I mostly hung out with Olivia. Brianna loved it. She had a great time and could go on most ride by herself if the adults wanted a break. Her favorite ride seemed to be the racing slide where up to 4 people could go down at the same time. Lee won most often cause of course he's the heaviest, but mom and Brianna won a couple too.

They had a Subway there, which was awesome cause usually parks like that have overpriced French fries and burgers and such. It was nice to get real food. We brought our own drinks and all sorts of snacks, but when one spends 6 hrs somewhere you need a meal in there too!

It started raining lightly a couple times, but really, no one noticed. After all, it was a water park! Everyone was already wet.

We managed to get Olivia to nap in her stroller, a big job in itself! She only slept for about 30 mins, but after she woke up I brought her on a kiddie slide. She seemed to like the slide, but the water was so cold I didn't bring her up again. She didn't mind lol Since the park was so un-busy, we let her run around a lot with us chasing her. She thought it was great! She loved the little sun chairs they had set up all over the place which were low so she could get in and out of them herself.

Before we even left the parking lot, Brianna wanted to know if we could come back! I'd love to if it wasn't an hour and a half away. Especially this summer while it's only $10 a person!
