Great Wolf Lodge

Instead of having a big birthday party, Luke decided that he wanted to go to one of his favorite places, Great Wolf Lodge, and we were all thrilled with that idea. While we have only stayed one night in years past, this visit we decided to stay two nights, and that turned out to be perfect. It felt so much more like a mini-vacation, and not just a day at a water park. We left the Sunday after his birthday, and came back Tuesday evening. The boys thought missing school was an added bonus. ;)

Upon arrival, Luke got birthday wolf ears and a special birthday wristband, which meant he could have unlimited ice cream. For our little sweet-toothed five year old, nothing could have been better! (The final count was 5, which was fitting for a 5 year old, I'd say!) The boys requested that we stay in a room again with a "kid cabin," with bunk beds and their own TV. Basically they were in paradise!

The Birthday Boy






At the water park, Luke's favorite was the wave pool, but still had a blast on the slides. He loved the funnel slide, which he so sweetly referred to as a toilet bowl. You know how sound travels really well in those tunnel slides? Imagine him screaming, "Here comes the toilet! I'm going to flush you!" as loud of he could. Such a little stinker.





One last ice cream before bed!


The boys went to the "clock tower show" and story time on Monday night and seemed to enjoy it, although somehow it hasn't changed since our first trip when Caleb was 18 months old!





Caleb was definitely the big kid this trip. We let him ride the tube slides by himself (this was the first year he was big enough to carry his own tube) and there is no telling how many times he went down them all. While his favorite was the water roller coaster, he was still sweet to go down the smaller slides if Luke requested.


While the water park was a little crowded Sunday afternoon and Monday morning, by Monday evening and especially Tuesday, we had the place to ourselves. We would just walk right up the steps and get on a slide, which made it so nice. It really was a great trip- looking forward to next year!






This was just before we left Tuesday afternoon. He was WORN OUT! The sign of a fun few days, I'd say!
