Children's Garden at Thanksgiving Point

Yesterday, we decided to get together with Josh's brother Isaac, his wife Nicole and their 3 kids. We met at the Children's Garden. As you first go in, there is this HUGE Noah's ark where the kids can play in the water. There are lots of fountains and water shooting out of the ground. The kids played there for a while and had a lot of fun. I didn't know how much water there was, otherwise I probably would have had Tiff bring her bathing suit, but oh well. At least she was in shorts and able to enjoy.







After, the water play, we went walking. There was this cool centipede that the kids got to play in.





There was a cool rock section that looked like a "hobbit home". LOL.



Next, we walked for a while andthere was a huge koi fish pond that was really pretty too. there were lots of tall corn and etc around the area as well.




We came upon this mini lighthouse that the kids could climb up to and see out of. There were windows up top that they could peek out of. It was actually pretty neat.



We walked a bit further and we found this big cave area. The kids had a "cave" section where they could climb into and out of. There were like 3 different escapt hatches and etc. They had a lot of fun playing there.





There were different "discovery stations" on this walking section that was a bit more rustic. Lots of shade and very pretty.




There was a big sand box area that the kids checked out.



There was an "indian fjord" that Josh, Isaac and the kids all played in. I swear, the 2 boys are just as childish as the kids are sometimes. LOL. It was pretty funny to see them all playing. What is it about building things that guys love. LOL!!! Either way, it was really funny.



After that, we decided since it was over 100F outside, we would go inside and get some lunch. It was good for everyone to get together. I think thatwe are all so crzy busy with our day to day lives that we never seem to be able to find the time to be able to get together and I know Josh and Tiff really enjoyed it.
