One Last Day of Fun in the Sun!

We took the boys to Lake Lanier Islands last weekend for one last fun 'summer' day! It was a great day... except that Jake got sick the day before! On Saturday morning, he wasn't awful, but he definitely wasn't 100% either.... when we mentioned Jake and I staying home, Jake got so upset - both boys had been looking forward to the water park for a while!

So we made the decision that any other well-meaning parent working for their "Parent of the Year" badge would do - we loaded up the fam and off to the water park we went! Jake puked right before we got in the car... didn't stop us... he puked again on the way... still powered on!

[Pardon the camera phone quality pics... didn't want to mess up the 'good' one!?]
When we got there, he ate a banana... Sam quickly made friends...
But still played by himself or with us - and kept coming up to Jake to ask him to come play!
Here he is 'waiting on Jake to come play' --- sweet boy!
Jake puked up the banana... and this is how he stayed (once he got out of my lap, that is)...
We went and ate lunch - he ate a few bites of his hamburger and a few chips. When we got back to our umbrella and chair, poor little guy passed out....
Sam and Daddy played in the kiddie wave pool and kiddie slides - taking a break here!
Back to it!
Mommy got in on some of the action too!
Going 'up' the slide...
Trying to figure out how these work...
Sitting on the water...
In the wave pool (kiddie of course!)...We took him to the big wave pool - not interested... we took him to the top of every water slide ['just so he could see it', bc he had 'never seen it before.'] - and walked ourselves back down!!! Ohhhh, my cautious little guy - I can only imagine Jake if he had felt better; he would have been begging to go down ALL of them!!!! I'm cool with cautious - most definitely!!!!!
Still asleep...
Still waiting on his little brother to wake up so they can play!
FINALLY... waking up...
Slowly...
That was just what he needed... and it made us feel less guilty for taking him! The next morning he woke up feeling great! Of course!!!! By the time Jake woke up, it was time to leave [even though Sam said he wasn't leaving until it was time to go on our next vacation!?]! But we'll be back next summer! Sam is already working on 'when' we will be going!!!
