The kids were on spring break this week. We wanted to do something that wasn't expensive, but still fun for them and we didn't have a lot of time to do it. Arlie was able to take one day off, so we rented a room at the Roger/Elk River Holiday Inn and Water park. If you get a room there, the water park is free. It was great because we were able to swim for a couple hours on Wednesday night and a couple hours on Thursday and the kids thought it was great. Sydney absolutely LOVES hotels. She would move to one and live there if we let her. The whole way, she laughed and said "This is the best night of my life...I sure do love hotels". Unfortunately then, she was up late and up early because she was so excited...but it was worth it! It honestly felt like a mini vacation and it was 30 minutes from our house. It was perfect, the kids got to do something special. We got to do some family bonding and spend some great quality time with them. They had three large water slides. One of which is like a bowl at the bottom. You come shooting out into this bowl and go around a couple of times and then it drops you out the bottom. You could go on that as many times as you wanted and it was the same rush every time. They had a lazy river, whirlpool tub (that made you swim in circles), log walk, basketball hoop and open pool to play in, zero depth pool with lots of fun things for younger kids, slides, watershooting things..etc. The kids favorite is a hot tub that they are allowed to go in :) I highly recommend it.
