we are back

We made it back on Thursday night. The kids LOVED the Great Wolf Lodge. We planned on staying only two nights but they offered us a 3rd night at half price so we stayed the 3rd night. Most of the time I was off with Katey going down the slides or being in the pool, while my mom was with the boys in the kiddie pool area. After becoming water logged at the Gread Wolf we took the kids over Mackinaw Bridge. The kids were really good in the van. Maybe the last hour or so is when mostly Katey became whiney and she was done riding. But all in all it was a fun time. I hope to post pictures all weekend/week for you all to see. Yeah Amanda it would've been funier comming to your house but maybe next year!!



This is the view as we entered the water park. The big bucket I do have pictures of this thing dumping that I will post at a later date.




Katey living under the water. She is such a little water bug.

The boys loved the kiddie pool. Mom said this water toy was thier favorite.

vacation with a change of plans

I am on VACATION!!!! Can't tell that I am excited can you?? Well tomorrow we were suppose to be heading down to Neb to visit my friend Amanda, who I have never met and we have been friends for almost 6 years. How did we become friends since I live in Michigan and her in Nebraska? We met on Americanbaby.com. We would email each other and then we exchanged phone numbers and now we talk on the phone at least once a day. Well ok its more like 3-4 or more times a day. Our kids are back to back almost (4-6 weeks apart) each time. We talk about everything and anything. So my mom, myself and my kids were going to take the drive to visit her, but she was offered a full time job, so now we are heading in a different direction! Where are we going now?? Well we are now going up north. First to Traverse City to Great Wolf Lodge. We have never been their but I have been wanting to go. I know the kids will have a blast. After that we will hit the sand dunes and then to Mackinaw city so the kids can see the Mackinaw Bridge. What we will do after all that I have no idea. So I may or may not be posting this week depending on who has a computer. But I know I won't be posting any pictures until I get back then watch out!


Amanda way to go on your new job! I hope it will lead to another full time job when this one is over!! We will have to plan for next summer! I will be thinking of you all this week. I will have my cell phone so feel free to call, my mom might even answer!
