Since the moment Jillian said yes to a date, to another chance at us, my mind has been reeling on what I can plan for said date. I don’t really want to wait until we get home, so I set into place some elaborate plans, but ones I hope pay off in the end.

The next few days fly by, between rides and princess appointments and more character meetings than I can count. Today is a down day and we’re just spending it at the pool. What Jillian and the girls don’t know is that my parents are flying in to join us for the last few days of our vacation. I decided the date couldn’t wait until we got home. I needed to go big, and this will hopefully make Jillian realize I’m all-in.

“Daddy!” Penny calls from the side of the pool. “Catch me!” she adds before jumping in, and I do as she asks. The girl has zero fear when it comes to the pool. Thankfully, for three years old, she’s a pretty good swimmer due to all the lessons Jillian has had the girls in since they were infants.

“How about we go down the slide?” I suggest to both of them.

“Yay!” they cheer as they cling to me. I walk us out of the pool, thanks to the zero-entry end, and around to the entrance to the slide. I grab a tube for all of us to ride on and we climb the stairs to the top.

“Mommy!” Addison calls down to Jillian. “Watch us!” she shouts, and Jillian gives us a thumbs up. It’s finally our turn and I get the girls situated on the tube, then wait for the signal we can go down. My ears are filled with the giggles from both of them as we zoom down the slide. This particular one dumps us into a lazy river, so once we make it to the end, we relax as we make our way around.

“Are you girls ready for some lunch?” I ask as we approach the exit to the river.

“Yep!” they both tell me at the same time.

“Good, because Daddy is starving!” I tell them, moving in to pretend to eat their bellies.

I pull away when it’s time for me to steer us to the exit. With the girls out of the water, I toss the tube into the corral and we take off to find Jillian. She’s still kicked back in her lounge chair, a fruity drink next to her and her kindle out.

“Hey, Momma. We’re ready for some lunch, what do you say?”

“Sounds good to me,” she says. “We can flag down our server and order.”

We rented a cabana for the day to give us a tiny bit of privacy, and to give us a place to have some shade when needed. Besides the first night at the restaurant, we haven’t had any other issues with fans bothering us. I’ve signed a few things for some kids who recognized me, and taken a handful of pictures, but nothing too bothersome.
