Last weekend we had our first of two weekend get-away trips before baby number 4 joins us. We went to Great Wolf Lodge in Niagara Falls and had an absolute blast! The kids had sooooooo.... much fun and there was plenty to do for all ages.
Shannon just loved stomping around in the pools and swatting at the water gysers. That child is a little too adventerous for my liking though - she just toddled off into deeper, and deeper water, oblivious to anything except having fun!
Quinn also loved the gysers, and just generally running around like a mad man! He even went down a couple slides - a huge grin on his face the whole time.
Aidan loved the fact that he could go down the 'big' slides with Chris. In fact, there were only 3 slides that he wasn't tall enough for. But he was content to ride the slides he could - yelling his fool head off all the while. He kept saying to me: "Mummy, this is the coolest place EVER!!!"
Chris and I really enjoyed ourselves too. It was so nice to see all three kids having so much fun, and just seeing the sheer joy on their faces made the whole trek worthwhile.
On Friday night Chris played in an all-night Ultimate tournament with Uncle Dave in Hamilton. This tournament has become an annual ritual, and is typically followed by a day of extreme fatigue (that's what tends to happen when you're up all night playing ultimate!) and a couple days of soreness and cramping. But, he had a good time, and was really happy he got to play. The kids were happy because we stayed at Tush & Dave's place, so they got to play, play, and play with cousins Liam and Devan (and I got to ooh and ahh over little Sharra).
This weekend we're off to another indoor waterpark in Detroit, so we'll have to see how it measures up to the Lodge.
