Vacation at Massanutten

Well we are back from our vacation at Massanutten resort in McGaheysville, VA and boy did we have fun. Friends Kelly and Nash with their kids Ella and Will met us up there. We had a great condo that we could see the slopes right out our window. It was great because we could walk right to the slopes and begin playing. We first though spent our time playing at the indoor waterpark there. It was full of slides, spraying water hoses, a lazy river, big bucket of water that fills and dumps overhead, kids play pools and Wally's favorite - the flow rider. You'll have to check out the video of Wally on the flow rider below. We all had a blast. Parker loved these buckets that were on bungees that he could sit in. It was perfect to keep him in the water and he could splash. He liked for us to bounce him and swing him in them too. Will also liked them because he could bounce himself in them. Kelly and I went back at night while the guys watched the kids and had some fun of our own. We went on enclosed tube slides that actually went outside the park. It was dark and you never knew what was going to happen. One lady even sent us down backwards. YIKES! Us and the kids went back a few more times. It was definetly a lot of fun.

One of my favorite pics! While we were waiting to watch Wally on the flow rider, Ella started to play this little piggy with Parker. So sweet.

When it was time for the slopes we took turns so everyone got a chance to go out. Wally and I hit the slopes in the morning while Kel and Nash kept Parker. Then we all met up at the lodge to switch. Wally, Nash and Kelly stayed and taught Ella how to ski while Parker, Will and I went to the park. Everyone had a great time. Nash, Ella and I also went tubing. It was Ella's first time and boy did she like it. Nash and Ella were connected and took turns at who was in front. We had a fun time racing each other. We each won a few times. Unfortunately the night before Kelly and Will came down with a stomach virus so they couldn't go with us. It didn't end with them either. We each slowly got picked off ending with me. I got it the night we got home. Luckily it was at the end of our trip when it started and we had all experienced most everything there. We were just wanting to do things again.
