For Ryan's birthday we took a mini family vacation to Great Wolf Lodge Niagara (you know you are parent when your Birthday celebration is at a kids resort). We went with our friends, Heather and Joel and their two kids. The kids had a blast... spending time at the water park, going bowling, going for a guided 'nature walk' and spending time in the craft/play room. We also got a theme room in which the kids got a mini cabin with bunk beds. Jared was a little under the weather, which meant a poor sleep the first night and a melt down on the afternoon of the second day, but a nice long nap helped settle things. We had so much fun that we forgot to take pictures, until we were leaving, but at that time both kids were crying that they didn't want to go, so I only got pictures of their backs :-) It has been several weeks since we have been back home and still both kids talk about wanting to go back again. Maybe next year....
