Happy Friday!!!

This is a fam picture that we took while at the Great Wolf Lodge.

I'm just so glad that we were able to get away and have a lot of fun together!
Sometimes we get so bogged down in everyday life that we dont stop to look around and enjoy everything that we have.
I loved watching the kids have fun!
I loved spending time with the kids and with dh without a worry!
It was a great break and cant wait to do it again!

Great Wolf - Day 3

All good things must come to an end...
Today was our last day at the Great Wolf Lodge.

We woke up, packed up, had breakfast, and then hit the pool for a few more hours before heading home!
We did a lot today... I am exhausted...but in a good way...
I think the boys loved their time there...and I'm sure dh and I did also.
It's nice to be able to just enjoy the moment for a while...and not worry about everything else.
Cant wait till we can plan another trip back!

YES!!!!
All SLEEPING!!!!

Everyone had to get a picture sittin in the bear!!!!

The Tube slides were very popular with the boys!!!
They had to ride with dad...but they didnt care!
We better have a pool for these boys for the summer!

Great Wolf - Day 2

Amazing how well everyone sleeps after a full day at the water park!!!!

We had a nice big breakfast this morning..then headed back for some more fun!

Today was all about the water slides!

I watched E go down the same two slides for over an hour....
They all had fun on the different slides though.

We played so hard in the morning...everyone was ready for a nap in the afternoon...
We then went to dinner...then had another 2 hours of water fun!

We leave tomorrow...but we are allowed to use the water park as long as we want tomorrow...
So, I'm sure the kids are gonna be up at sunrise...
They want to get all their fun in before we head home in the afternoon!

Great Wolf - Day 1

We cut back on birthday gifts this year...and decided to take a trip instead!
So, here we are, in between F and E's birthday's and we are on a 3 day vacay!
Since the kids love swimming and such...and since it will be a couple of months until we can actually swim near home... we decided to take the plunge...and try one of the water park hotels!
It is only 2 hours from home so the kids didnt have to ride in the van for too long... and it saved us money on gas and such.
We had a great first day!
We had breakfast this morning near home... and then hit the road...
4...yes FOUR bathroom breaks later...and we were at the hotel!
We swam from 2:30 till 7....
Then went and had a great dinner!
We then watched a good night show in the lobby of the hotel until the kids got their way and finally got to go to bed...
They began to beg to go to bed as soon as we arrived at dinner actually!
*laughs*
This hotel is really geared towards kids which is really great!
The water park is awesome!
The hotel room is very large and nice!
Everyone is having a great time so far!
Here are some pics from today!
(you wont see any of the Little Lady... she is with Grandma and Grandpa...not a fan of the H2O)
