Great Wolf Lodge

We pulled the girls out of school for 24 hours to go to Williamsburg and play hooky at the Great Wolf Lodge....considering Daddy is leaving for 6 months in a few days we felt justified in this fun filled family time.

The place was EMPTY so we had a blast enjoying all the pools and slides essentially to ourselves! Morgan started off a little timid of all the water and noise but eventually relaxed and had a lot of fun. Brooke modeling for the camera...she is starting to look so mature.

Dancing to the beat of her own drummer...literally!
Baileigh and Mckenna getting dumped on by the huge bucket of water...
My chronic goofball...
Flowrider was a favorite ride of Baileigh, Mckenna and Daddy...this thing was powerful and we witnessed a few people loose their suits! The girls were exhausted that evening because this thing is a lot of work, but they loved it and started to get really good at being able to control themselves and move around.

At 8:00 every night they encourage kids to come to the lobby in their pjs for storytime...
A picture with their mascot...forgot his name.
In the morning the girls were spoiled with donuts in their kids cabin!
We enjoyed a few more hours of fun in the waterpark on day 2 before we hit the road and headed home. This trip was sort of a last minute idea and we're so thankful we did it...it was a nice distraction from the 24/7 focus on the deployment and a great family time.
Morgan kept up with her big sisters like a trooper...she didn't get a nap for 2 days but survived and even slept in a big girl bed at the hotel! Our baby days are limited!
