Waterpark Trip 2013

We have spent a night in February at Key Lime Cove for the past two years.  It has always been sort of our "last hurrah" before baseball season begins for Wally.  Unfortunately this year with everything going on in my mind, I forgot to call Key Lime Cove to make reservations.  Once I did remember, there was a two night minimum and that is just way too long (and expensive) to be there.  So we looked into a few other options.  We like to be not too far from home since we just go for one night.  We settled on CoCo Key in Rockford - it is attached to the Clock Tower Hotel. 

And here is our PSA to all of you.  Do not go to this waterpark/hotel.  Wally and I were not happy with a lot of things about it.  I won't go into detail here, but just know that we do NOT recommend it.  Now, of course, our kids enjoyed it, but I know we all would have had a better experience somewhere else.

I don't have a ton of pictures as it is hard to have the camera out at a waterpark, but I have a few.

Paige was definitely more into it at first than Luke.  Every winter he seems to forget that he really does love water!

After pizza in the room, which Luke thought was so cool, there was some chair spinning. Who doesn't love to spin in chairs?!?!

The next morning we went for breakfast and then hit up the hotel pool and tried the waterpark again.  The water was freezing - what kid (or adult) wants to go in freezing cold water!  So we hit up the arcade before leaving.

We stopped at Stacey's in Downer's Grove on our way home to celebrate her birthday (and pick up Nala).  And of course see Miss Fiona!
