Great Wolf Lodge

 On Sunday am we packed up the fam and headed north.  Great Wolf Lodge was our destination and we were looking forward to a couple days of family fun.  The lodge was awesome and there was fun to be had.  I, however, was a tad under the weather so the trip probably would've been a bit better had I of felt 100%.  I put on the best I-feel-good face as possible and we enjoyed all the resort had to offer.
We stayed in a kid cabin suite so the kids had their own little cabin within our room.  They thought that was pretty cool.  I think they enjoyed playing in their 'room' as much as they did the water.
 May I take your order please?
Kennedy loved the little window above her bed.
 Kooper thought it'd be fun to climb through- BOYS!!
 A view of our living area.  Nothing too fancy but the fireplace was nice.
 Kolter getting a feel for the ladder.  He did fall down a couple times before mastering it.
The awesome water park with any and everything you could imagine.
Our kids liked the kiddie pool area most.  I have a feeling in a couple years they'll be all about the big slides.  Kennedy enjoyed going down the green tub slide with us as much as we'd go.  We made Kooper try it and that was about the end of that.  Even dad talking it up like they were going on a space mission didn't seem to help.  At least he tried. :) 
For now the kiddie slides will do just fine. 
Kennedy spoted a little girl with a glitter tatoo and just had to have one.. 

What's cool is that they stay on in the water and is still pretty looking even days later.

PJ story time at the clock tower. 
The tower comes to life and all the animals tell a story.  The kids were in awe as they watched.
It really was a nice way to end the night.

Violet and Wiley came out to help read a bed time story..

They even stayed around for picture fun.  Both boys chickened out at last minute so I ended up standing in with Kennedy.
All in all we had a howling fun time at GWL.  I had a minor scare on Monday morning when I thought my daughter went missing, which put an end to our waterpark fun for the day.  Thankfully she was found trying to find her dad, praise God, so other than that it was a good family getaway.   Looking forward to next time.... and hoping for no colds or sinus infections when we go back. :)
