A Howling Good Time!

Okay, one more big post to catch up on before work starts getting crazy! We spent two nights at Great Wolf Lodge last week with the boys. We had such a great time there back in May for one night, that we decided to go back again for two this time. Once again, we got the Kid Kabin room, that has a separate nook area ('The Wolf Den') with a bunk bed and a tv for the kiddos. Both boys loved climbing up on the bunk beds. And there was a perfect little nook off to the side that the pack-n-play fit perfectly in for Chase. When we went in May, we didn't come all that prepared. But this time, I was more on top of things. Let's face it, food at a place like this can get expensive real quick. And since our room had a fridge and microwave in it, we packed up food/drinks/snacks for breakfast and lunch each day, and only had to buy dinner. Although with all the food, the pack-n-play, clothes, and everything else, it literally looked like we were moving into this place with all the crap we brought.!

We had a great time, splashing around in the water. Although, we ended up having to take turns with Chase. His skin is super-sensitive (has frequent eczema flare-ups), and didn't really do well with the high chlorine levels in the water. So, he didn't get wet much. But we still had a great time! Everytime we left our room to head downstairs to the waterpark area, Austin would be jumping up and down in the hallway, cheering 'Woohoo! Going to the waterpark, woohoo!' It was hilarious! And he liked getting in the alligator (elevator). Silly kid. We even managed to make it to story time at the clock tower at 8pm one night; it was so much fun! And we spent some time in the arcade playing games, too.

Here are a few pics from our trip:
