Spring Break-via Wisconsin Dells

We spent the first part of spring break going to Wisconsin Dells.  It was a nice way to get away for a short while before the holy week extravaganza at church for me.  We left Thursday and came home Sunday.  We brought along auntie Kiki because she wanted to spend Spring Break with us and couldn't resist the kids!  We stayed at Wilderness Resort and loved it.  4 indoor water parks, 2 indoor mini golf courses and an indoor play area are all in the resort!  Anna told us all we needed to pack was our swimsuits and pajamas. 

As soon as we arrived, we had to get our swimsuits on and try out a waterpark.  Tried the giant wave (it goes off every few minutes with huge waves you can "ride on".  Had dinner at the resort that night and slept well.  The next day, the kids raced dukes in the lazy river (alex won a prize) and we played at Klondike Cavern and Cubby cove with a short break for lunch and painting pottery with Kiki.  That night, we had dinner at Moosejaw.

Saturday, we met up with our friends from church who we knew were also at the same resort.  We played together at the waterdome and in the waves most of the day.  The kids never grew tired of being in the water.  That night, we had dinner in town and tried a fried peanut butter/banana sandwich topped with chocolate.  YUM.

Sunday, we checked out and were able to stay at the park as long as we wanted.  Met up with our friends again at Wild West area and swam all morning.  Capped off our trip with a visit to the pizza ranch for lunch.  Classy! 

Fun was had by all.  Alex was pooped by the time we were done.  Kiki was tired of all the chaos when we left too.  As for the rest of us, we could have stayed one more day.
