Once again,
Grandpa and Grandma Vander Vliet
took the whole crew to
Great Wolf Lodge in Traverse City, MI
for a weekend of family fun.
GWL is kid heaven,
with so much to do
(and so many crazy kiddos to keep up with)
we never even left the hotel.
Two years ago Mila
would only try the baby slides,
this year she zoomed down all but one!
Usually she wanted to race.
It was a good strategy
because someone was always there
to talk her into going down the "big kid" slides.
It was also good that we were there when
she announced she had to pee and couldn't hold it...
as we were next in line after a very long wait.
The hot tub is always a hit
with the kids and adults.
Willow had a blast too.
She ADORES hanging with her cousins.
Seeing both our girls with
such big smiles on their faces
brings us a lot of joy.
It's really awesome
to see these kids grow up together.
Willow has really taken
to her cousin Henry
and he is so nice to her.
The adults had a good time too.
Each night we stayed up late
talking, snacking and playing games.
For some extra fun,
cousin Abby treated Mila
to a spa service at Scoops.
Mila and her cousin Johanna
each received a sash and crown.
The arcade was a fun break from the water.
I think Mommy enjoyed it just as much as Mila ;)
We also tried mini-bowling
for the first time.
Mila really got into it.
Another great trip to GWL!
Already dreaming of coming back...
