Going to the Loooodge

Saturday evening my folks came down with my niece and nephew in tow for a mini Springbreak vacation. Unfortunately my sister and her husband stayed back home (for some needed 'no kid' time!).  We left Sunday afternoon for the Great Wolf Lodge in Grapevine, TX. I have seen the commercials, and have been dying to go so I was glad they wanted to take a trip!  We arrived around 2 pm and unloaded our junk (and we had a lot of it) in our rooms, and quickly suited up for the Water Park.
*for those who don't know, this place has an indoor water park with heated water, and it is amazing!

 Natalie and I stayed behind so she could take a good nap and be rested and ready for her first trip to the pool! It also gave Mimi, Poppi, and Uncle Brian time with the older kids.
 We met up with the crew a couple hours later, and Evan and Audrey were having a blast!  Natalie didn't seem to mind the water either

Audrey and Evan both did a great job taking care of Natalie and playing with her. They are so funny to watch and listen to as they talk in their 'baby' voice to her!

Snuggled up after her afternoon at the Water Park.

After a few hours at the park we returned to the room for showers, pizza and pajamas!  8 pm was story time at the Great Clock Tower and fireplace.

They had the cutest little show before a lady read Miss Nelson is Missing.  Their microphone system was terrible so it was hard to understand the reader, and she was reading from a normal sized book! Hellooooo! Have you ever heard of a BIG book?! Duh. 

 The characters talked and moved around. It was really too cute!

 The story managed to keep Evan's interest, but as you can see above, not Audrey's.

 Natalie was just being cute as usual!

We ended the night with story time for Evan and Poppi, and

 a little snuggle play time with Audrey, Natalie and Mimi.
