Great Wolf Lodge

May 2022 

As an end-of-the-Homeschool year party, we made a trip to Great Wolf Lodge. We had only been there once when Charlie was just learning to walk.We used some Christmas money from my parents and made our way. 

When we arrived in the late afternoon, our room was still not ready so the employees showered us with extras. We ended up getting a free family meal pass at the buffet as well as two wolf passes that were good for many activities at the lodge. We didn't mind waiting a bit extra and shortly thereafter, our room was ready.  

The boys got their wands for the Magic Quest game and had some fun finding those checkpoints. then we went to our room to change into our swim suits. We swam for awhile then got dry and had a late dinner at the buffet. The buffet experience was new for our boys and they ate like kings! 

With full bellies, we went to bed and the boys slept well after an evening of swimming. In the morning we decided to start with a couple of the other activities included on our pass. 

We dug for gold, went through the mirror maze, did some arcade games, some blacklight mini golf, picked out our cup of candy and ice cream scoop. 

We also met up with our cousins. They had to come a day later than us because that's how it worked out with our schedules but we were glad to meet up with them at lunch time.

We checked out of our room, then went to swim some more. 

Since James and Elizabeth were there we were able to split up and supervise different groups of cousins. I was with Everett and Miles for awhile.

We played until we were all exhausted then started the drive home. We would have stopped at my mom's house on the way but found out that our dog sitter had kind of neglected our dog all day so we rushed back. All was well. 

Anyway, the boys can't stop talking about our trip to Great Wolf lodge and it may become an end of year tradition.
