Swimming at Roy Aquatic Center

What's the best thing to do on a hot day? Why, go swimming of course! And that's just what we did last Wednesday. I'm a little behind on my posts, so I'm going to try and catch up the next few days.

My sister used to rent a house right down the road from this Aquatic Center and her boys (as well as my kids) have always wanted to go swimming there, so we were sure to make it this summer on one of our Wednesday play days.

Here's a picture of the kids chilling on their towels. They all love to be together!


Hailey and Nana


The best part about this swimming pool was that it was completely geared towards little kids. Branson and Hailey loved this little slide - they thought it was so neat to slide down the frog's tongue!


It feels so nice to relax in the water on a hot day!


Hailey and Branson played together all day long. In fact, most of the time they were holding hands as they would walk from the front of the slide to the back. It was so cute! I got a few pictures, but they were all blurry, so I didn't post them. They are such good friends, I love it!


Zach has been so anxious to use his pool noodle in a bigger pool than the blow-up one we have played in out back. This was perfect and he loved every second of it.


Zach and Ashton loved the fire hydrant water squirters and spent a ton of time trying to squirt each other and any one else that came by.


My kids have turned into little daredevils and both went down the waterslide with Jeremiah. I tried to get pictures, but in order to see them I had to stand so far back that you couldn't see anything in the picture. So I guess you'll have to use your imagination, but they had a blast! They both went down the curvy slide at least 3 or 4 times each! Zach even went down by himself twice! They would have gone more if we had let them, but we were tired and wanted them to play on the other water toys too!

We had a blast and can't wait to go back again next year. We've decided it's really the perfect pool for little kids!

It was so much fun! I am so excited that we will live so close to it. Next summer we'll have to have lunch at my house and go over there. FUN! I'm imagining it now. Also love the new background. TOO CUTE!
