It may be over 100 degrees with direct sun burning down on us and hot wind blowing in our faces, but it's almost worth it to be able to enjoy these amazing, cold water splash pads. Over half of Vegas public parks have some form of fountain or splash pad. Paseos Park in Summerlin is my absolute favorite. Now that John is walking so well, he LOVES independently toddling around these splash pads, so we go to at least one park a week.
Last Tuesday, Matt's oldest sister Kori and her family stopped in Vegas on their drive from Kingman (Matt's brother) to Utah (more family), and they added a 30 minute detour to enjoy (and expend energy at) our favorite park.

Happy John.
One of John's latest favorites is taking off our sunglasses and attempting to put them on himself. We usually need to help him, to avoid jabs in the eye, but it's worth the jabs to see John's delight of looking "cool" in sunglasses. He gives us this hilarious smirk as soon as they are on. Love it.
John then decided to help himself to chocolate chip cookies. Best way to end a park trip!
So, all of you questioning how one could possibly survive Vegas during the summer, the secret is out: splash pads.
