Mom was in town this weekend for a visit and to celebration my birthday a few days early. It was nice to have the extra help, with the boys while Jamie was out of town. Plus Mom and Nathalie even helped with some much needed yard work. Thank You!
I think the boys had a good weekend as well!

3 kids + 2 parents + 1 waterpark does not exactly equal a relaxing weekend. Still I think the kids had fun, and we will probably do this again, maybe just one night next time.
I’m always impressed at how good places like Great Wolf are at getting even more money out of you. Magic Quest is an interactive game spread out in the hallways of the hotel. For the beginning I new it would only be a mater of time before Jasper would want to play. We swallowed our fear that this would lead to a future dungeon and dragon geekdom and bought Jasper the magic wand and game fee. It then kept him completely occupied for the rest of the trip, including opting out of going to the waterpark on Sunday morning.
