BIG Girl at BIG SURF!

My sister and her husband offered to take my little brother and his friends to Big Surf as a last HOO RAH before school starts on monday.




I am so glad they asked me along too! Usually tickets are 26$ EEKS! but Ashlee being the smart shopper she is found a deal where if you get 4 or more people to go it is $40 WHAT A STEAL!! Of course Gigi was $3.. seriously.. for a baby... :( Oh well we did have so much fun... we took Gigi into the baby pool at first. She played the HUGE Alligator raft and went under the mushroom waterfall but as soon as we sent her down the slide... TEARS STARTED Falling :( As soon as she was at the end of the slide and in Mama's arms everything was alright... we will wait a little longer to try that one again ;)
The wave pool however she LOVED!! They make kiddos wear a life jacket and even though it squished her face to where all you could see were her eyes and great big cheeks (Wish I had a picture) it was so much better. As soon as the Tsunami came it lifted both Gigi and I up... the cool thing was the jacket had a special pillow that floats up and immediately lays her on her back, head supported and all.... SO SMART!!! It was a lot of fun :) After that Uncle Tommy took a turn hanging out with her while Ashlee and I rode the BLACK HOLE together!! It was a lot of fun, I can't remember the last time I went down a waterslide on a raft!

After the Black hole, Tommy went out to the wave pool with the boys and Gigi settled down with some milk and nice 45 minute nap while Mommy and Ashlee talked and sunned.


I was so adamant about getting my money's worth that Ashlee and I took turns staying with the stroller while the other rode slide after slide after slide. We rode 6 slides each in 30 minutes!!!!!


Overall it was a fun day... I can't wait to try out Wet N Wild next year with Gigi and Daddy :)
