Schlitterbahn Part 6: Saturday Afternoon/Evening

 Once we got back from the pool, it was great to see Meemaw and Papaw had arrived! This was even more fun because I actually had no idea they had intended to come until that day!

Everyone had some lunch, and some baby snuggles:


And then Bryan and I put Clara down for a nap (that didn't actually ever end up happening) and I fed Emma, we went with Mom to go ride a couple of "grown up" tube rides which was great!

 

 When we got back all of the muchkins were up from their non-naps and ready to do something fun!
We put all the kiddos in their matching shirts, too, which I love :)

Clara walking around in Meemaw's shoes:
 

 The front (Splash Vacacy 2014) & back (each kid's nickname, for Clara we used "Squirt") of the shirt being unintentionally modeled by Clara:
 

Riding Mommy's legs like a horsey and giving me her best grins :)

The Hermes clan arrived on the scene and the picture of Emma's big lip and Grady's funny expression crack me up!  
 

 Technology and Papaw

Lookin' good (you too Aunt Jana!)
 Still riding Mommy like a horsey and making goofy expressions:
 

Learning to play catch!


Uncle Dewayne is a good teacher!


Sleepy Emma on Daddy
Clara & Riah
 We intended to go to Landa Park and play on the playgrounds and ride the train, but it was PACKED and there was absolutely no parking, so we ended up going to dinner early (which turned out being an excellent idea).

Daddy, Clara & Meemaw
Michelle with Jonah and me with Emma 
 

 Daddy with his two girls and Meemaw & Papaw:
 

We were eating at Gristmill and it was DELICIOUS. Seriously good stuff.
15 of us!
 The onion rings were HUGE.
Riah and Logan splitting an onion ring - this picture makes me laugh
Sweet sweet Emma hanging out and trying to suck her thumb


"Sissy" on Emma's bum
                            
Lulu & Emma Lou
              Sweet cousins sharing some food:            

Some rather random videos at dinner of the girls:

Loving on her sissy

Uncle G (Chachy?), Papa & Clara
Clara & Riah were SO ready to get out of the restaurant and run and play  



Then Papaw gave them a short ride, which they clearly enjoyed!

 

Attempts to get a group photo commenced: 

Cousins + a straw
 Not too bad, considering!

All 5 kiddos
And the backs

Too cute!
Lulu & Papa took Clara back out for "Mo' bubbles" before bed, which she loved. But then ear drops made everything very very very bad. Between Mommy showing Clara a duck and Papa playing silly goldfish swimming games we finally got her calmed down again while Grady put Emma to sleep :)

 


Hiiiii duck!! Byeeee duck!!
 Then Auntie M read Clara a couple of books so Clara could go to sleep.
Does she look tired or what!?
 Walking around with Emma, looking for ducks:

Once all the kids were finally asleep we just sat around and talked.

A great way to end the day!
