Wilson Ranch Pool..

What a wonderful pool we just have about a 1.5 miles up the road. The only problem can be the wind but today was a perfect day to hit the pool and Daddy was able to join us making it an extra special day. What a difference a year makes with little ones. We took Lucas to pools and even Water World last year which was fun but very limited. Not today! He was all about exploring and loved the slide. He really wanted to go down the big water slide but it will be a few years for that one which has a height requirement.

If you live in Colorado Springs and haven't been to Wilson Ranch you should really go. It's a beautiful pool in an incredible setting...mountain back drop. It's all about kids and I think the deepest section is 4 ft. They have a float river and a whirlpool which is super fun! Not to mention all the fun water spray toys and slides!Venturing out with Daddy...notice the sun?!
Hiking to the top!
Good overview of the pool...Lucas' favorite was the orange slide you can barely see on the left side of the water fort.
Getting wet! It's still sunny!
Oh no...the sun disappears but that doesn't stop the fun! Lucas quickly realized how the rope "sprinklers" worked. He would stand out to the side not to get hit by the water. However, didn't take into account the other two ropes being pulled by other kids. It created a few surprise showers for sure.
Check out those new swim trunks (with room to grow!) from Grandma Jakulewicz...thanks Grandma! (Sorry, no photos of Mommy's new suit, next time!)
After one of those "surprise " sprays!
I love this one..."what are these crazy things on my arms supposed to do?" look?!
The clouds stuck around and Mommy and Lucas got cold! We jumped in the warm car and headed home for some tasty lunch. He had grilled cheese and Edamame (THANK YOU ERIN! HE LOVED THEM AND ATE A TON!) It's hard to see but the plate is full of Edamame shells and bread crusts. Daddy thought he was clever and told Lucas, "Oh, you don't like the crust? I love the crusts!" Lucas saved all his crusts and offered them to Daddy because Daddy "loves them sooo much!" Out smarted Daddy this time around! :)
