Surf N Slide

I took the kids to the Surf n Slide in Moses Lake and met a friend there (sorry to my grandparents. I really did want to stop and visit but had to rush back to Quincy to meet that friend back at her home to get a burlap bag full of free corn that her husband picked for me!) The kids had a blast! Ethan tried boogie boarding and the waterslide that shoots you out at the end. He was awesome.
I do have to confess, however, that I did TRUELY lose Cohen for a time. Luckily, I insisted that the twins wear lifejackets for our entire stay so I didn't have to panic. Just took a walk around for about 5 minutes and finally found him being escorted to the announcement booth by a helpful fellow mother. She was completely nice to me and didn't make me feel horrible about it. Cohen had run after me when I took a quick 20 steps away but then apparently "lost" me and was crying by the big water slides. She then took his hand and walked in the opposite direction from where I was, hence the long time it took to find him. She informed me that she thought Cohen had said his name was Colin and that his mommies name was "mommy". How helpful that would have been on the loud speaker! Oh well... we'll have to work on what mommies name is, I guess!
