Splash Park


On these ever so hot weekends in South Louisiana, we have headed out to the Gonzales Jambalaya Park where they have fountains, buckets, and other water park features. If we get there early enough (before 9am), we basically have the place to ourselves. We make arrangements with Katie, Rob and their boys, and get a good 60-90 minutes of outside time where you don’t want to kill yourself due to the heat. The boys play nice for the most part; Owen was a bit apprehensive at first, but warmed up to running around and getting totally soaked. Parker and Jack are still feeling their way around there and seem more to enjoy the goldfish and apple juice snacks instead of the water.



By the time we leave, everyone is soaking wet, getting hot, hungry, needs to be changed, and/or whining because they want to leave and it turns into a semi meltdown as we make our way to the car. All of the adults then turned to each other and wonder why we do this to ourselves…
