Told you we have been busy!!!
So Thursday was the birthday party at Typhoon Lagoon. It is such a cool water park. We had been there before but it was before we moved here to Orlando. We forgot how cool it really was. The slides are so much bigger than Aquatica.
Luke brought 3 of his friends and one of his friends sister with us. We found our "spot" and set up camp. Drew and I thought the kids would be tearing off for the slides but they spent most of the day building in the sand. We did get to a few slides, the wave pool, the lazy river and snorkeling with the sharks!
As usual, Tetyana was not afraid to try any of it despite not being able to swim real well. She and Haleigh hung out together and Haleigh (who is 13) was so great with Tetyana. The kids wanted to snorkel with the sharks and Haleigh said she would go with Tetyana. I wasn't sure how Tetyana would do because she doesn't really get that you can float with a life vest on and she won't sink. She freaked out a bit and they got 1/4th of the way and stopped at the reef. I was on the side trying to coax her along and Haleigh was trying to get her to the other end but she was scared. She didn't like the salt water taste. The life guard helped her to the side and she was fine. She said she saw some fish and liked that part but didn't like the salt water in her eyes or mouth. She did use the snorkel pretty good for her first time!
The kids wanted some ice cream so we found this little ice cream shack that sold ice cream in sand pails...OMG!!! It was huge and filled with ice cream, every topping you can imagine and whip cream. The kids loved it! I was afraid they were going to throw up!
The boys had a great time and I think the party was a success!

Sounds like a blast! We went to Typhoon for Father's day and had such a blast we bought annual passes to the water parks. Have to try the ice cream next time:)

WOW! You have had a busy time, but it looks like it was non-stop fun.
Luke's party sounds like a blast. Good for Tetyana for her willingness to try out new things.
I laughed when I read about the desserts before dinner. My girls would love it, but would probably think we had lost our minds. LOL!
A trip to the Magic Kingdom is on our list. Any suggestions for the best time to come (least crowded)?
Great to hear how great things are going!
