And the countdown begins...Cherry Hill is open Friday!!!

I don't know about you, but my kids and I are itch'n to go swimming.  It's a toss up this weekend though between camping and Cherry Hill!  My husband knows my vote...I bet we both win because I have a say in when we leave and come home from camping.  I can't wait for both :)   This weekend I will be with my family and best friends, plus my Bananna Boat sunscreen and Hawaiian Tropics suntan oil...I can't wait to lather up and sit in the sun!!!   Come back to see my new pictures from "day 1" this season at Cherry Hill.

Hamster Haven or Hamster Hayden at Cherry Hill, Utah

My boys love going to “Hamster Hayden” at Cherry Hill.  It’s probably our favorite thing to do there… Most of you know it as, Hamster Haven, which is correct.  We have a cousin named Hayden and so my youngest son, who is three, has a hard time saying  Hamster Haven and has been calling it Hamster Hayden since we’ve been going. So, in our family it is known as Hamster Hayden .   Although, we have a few made-up names for other things at Cherry Hill, like “the hot tub”.  Which I’m sure I will be talking about all summer long!  I find it so nice to be able to go somewhere clean, outside (yet in the shade, if you go at the right time), and with very few people.   I love my backyard and kind of love parks, but this place is the ultimate place for my little family.  I love that I don’t have to worry about streets or my kids being able to roam freely over a large area.  At Hamster Haven my kids are just like “hamsters in a cage” and I can see them at all times.   A major bonus for anyone who has more than one child!

Hamster Haven is soooo kid friendly and for pretty much any age.  My oldest son who will be six this year spends hours hanging from the ropes like Spiderman or crawling through the balls like an army guy.  The sky is the limit!  I also have an 8 month old that sits and watches his bothers play for hours in the balls.  My husband and I love rewarding our kids with an afternoon at Hamster Haven.  I captured a few great pics of my boys at Hamster Haven…
