Mom and Dad have been talking about
this "surprise" for a while.
They picked us all up from school early,
threw us in the car,
and started driving.
Guess where we ended up?
T-REX!!!
The most fun restaurant EVER!
We were stoked.
We explored the restaurant,
had some dinner,
got some goofy hats
Yep, even B
And what's T-Rex without the
mega brownie with ice cream and
dry ice volcano???
That was awesome.
But then,
as we were driving "home,"
we started talking about how we wondered if Great Wolf Lodge
(which we were driving past)
had any restaurants.
Dad suddenly turned in and said
"Let's find out."
I was embarrassed that he was really going to go inside and ask
(yes, I'm already embarrassed of my parents).
They he and Mom said we could ask after we checked into our room.
Our room?
Our ROOM?
OUR ROOM!!?!!
I'm not sure you've ever seen
2 boys more excited.
Let's do this!
It is Beckett's first time
(well, first time here not in Mom's stomach),
and we were more than happy to show him the ropes
Everyone must have their wolf ears
And then we can hit the pool!
Do-ta-do,
just standing here,
minding our own business...
Awesome
I think Beckett is having a good time
Yep, I'm sure of it
Weston worked on his swimming
B and Mom relaxed in the lazy river
(I think he fell asleep at one point)
Weston joined them
while Dad and I hit the water slides
Lots of jumping
And hanging out
The hot tub was probably the favorite pool
Beckett found his inner fish--
he floated and swam,
back and forth,
jumped in off the ledge,
swam back to the wall--
it was amazing
Could this night get any better?
We stopped by the clock tower
for Story Time
Beckett got a big kick out of the talking puppets
Then it was off to bed in our tent bunkbeds
Who needs 3 beds?
We can all share one!
The next morning,
we had some breakfast
paused for a picture or two
and went right back to the pool!
Beckett didn't lose his swimming abilities overnight!
He even tested out the water slides
He's hooked now!
We all had a blast on the waterslides
(except poor Mom--
they won't let pregnant ladies on them).
We also loved the lily pads and logs.
I almost made it across
Spry Weston did it!
We finished up the trip with a visit to the arcade.
I won 200 tickets.
We thought that was a lot
until Weston hit the jackpot and won 1000!!!
We have the best parents in the whole wide world
(at least for today).
Ok,
I think we are ready to be Reed Family of 6 now!
