Great Wolf Lodge

Coloring while daddy gets the car ready for home.

Howling at story time.


 Getting ready for the story to start, making sure we are not too far away.


 
This past weekend we adventured up to Great Wolf Lodge with Levi and Maci. Luke got to spend some time with Grandpa and Grandma Roedema..probably a bit of a break for him too with some one on one time. We had a great time and the kids loved everything about the trip...except the drive. They had their movies and all their snacks. I made small treasure chests for them with all their goodies for the drive and that was a big hit...and of course stopping at Wendy's for lunch. Levi called our room a cabin and even that to them was a big deal. Checking out the beds, the fireplace and how the room keys worked was so fun for them. It was fun to see this experience through their eyes.We spent time at the waterpark the first afternoon we got there and then for a few hours the day we left. Levi was just big enough to go on the tube slides with dad. Maci liked watching the 'big bucket' dump water on the kids..over 1000 gallons at a time.  We all went on the lazy river and spent time in the smaller kids area. We played the magi quest game and had lunch in the hotel restaurant when we left. The night we were there after the pool we gave the kids baths and new pjs and headed down to the lobby for the story time. Levi loved howling like a wolf and doing 'paw fives'. They were so tired they fell right asleep. The resort was so big that there was alot of other things we would have like to have done with them..but no naps and short on time we will have to save that for another time. What a great way to spend some one on one time with each of the kids too.
