Emily and I, along with our great friends Katrena and Tyler, spent a couple days at Great Wolf Lodge in Grapevine. It was a really cool hotel with both an indoor and outdoor water park. We left Megan with Granmamma and Daddy D because we were informed by friends that had been before that it was a difficult place to keep up with 2 kids of different swimming levels. I was sad that Megan could not join in the fun, but I also really enjoyed spending the one-on-one time with Emily... it's been a while since we've been able to do this.
We started the day off slow on the "baby slides" then we progressed to the much larger,faster slides that required inner tubes! Emily was barely tall enough to ride these so I wasn't sure if they would scare her... lucky for me they did not and we all had a blast on them!
When we were feeling a bit waterlogged, the hotel had other activities to enjoy, such as Build-A-Bear... Emily made a wolf for Megan! The kids got an airbrushed tattoo, they got to "build" their own pair of Crocs and we played a scavenger hunt game with sorcerer wands throughout the hotel. Sadly, I have no pictures to share of these activities... my camera battery died. :(
At night, we retired to our cool "cabin" hotel room. The kids had a separate "tent" area with bunk beds. This was the first time Emily had eve slept in a bunk bed and she was anticipating doing this several days before.
