Thanksgiving 2011

We were blessed with a beautiful, warm, and sunny fall day this Thanksgiving. It was a much smaller crew then most years - just the four of us, my parents, and my brother. While the big boys watched football on tv, my mom and I engaged the little boys in a game of football outside:)

We had many photos like this...

Great Wolf Lodge

Over the MEA break in October, we took a little trip to the Great Wolf Lodge in Wisconsin Dells. It was four days filled with lots of fun family time. Both boys had a wonderful time, though Charlie was a little afraid of anything that sprayed or dumped water on him. To be expected for a 21 month old. We enjoyed the waterpark, playing MagiQuest, doing arts and crafts in the Cub Club, eating out, watching movies, trick or treating in the lodge, story time followed by a dance party in the lobby, bowling, and family nap time! Sam still mentions Great Wolf Lodge from time to time and can't wait to go back some day:)
