The last 4 summers have started with V recovering from some pretty intense health issues. This year is different – And it feels GOOD!
V has been really healthy this year, pair that with a great year at school and I have one happy girl – which makes me one happy mom. Our summer kicked off the way that it should; enjoying the warm summer sun while playing in the water at Wild Waves.
We jumped in the wave pool and floated the lazy river (getting in the tube with V was quite a sight!) got a face full of water on a small slide at Pirates Cove, and warmed up in the hot tub. Watching the cousins on the crazy rides and hearing their screams was all part of the entertainment. We left happy, sun kissed and tired. A perfect start to Seattle’s best season.
