Alexander Springs

We headed over to Alexander Springs for some fun in the cool seventy two degree water with the Edmonston and Womack families. After going today I'm not sure why we don't go over there more often. It's a short ride from home and tons of fun. We packed a lunch and some toys and got alot of laughs and smiles in return.

Of course, Brayden was not a fan of the water at first. This is usual for him with any place that has water. He screamed, cried and wanted to be held for about the first hour or two while we were there. I'm sure the cold water had something to do with it but with the temperature outside close to one hundred how could the water not feel good?! We went ahead and played in the sand a little, blew bubbles and ate some lunch. Ian ventured back into the water with Brayden. I ventured down to there a few minutes later and to my surprise he was swimming and chasing Ian in the water! For the next few hours it was impossible to get him out to the water, or the pool as he calls it.

We also went for a walk around the nature trail and made a stop at one of the docks that over looked the spring. The hot walk made us want to jump into the water again and swim some more before we headed out for the day.

As soon as we drove away, Brayden was fast asleep. That's the sign of a fun filled day!
