Great Wolf Lodge 2009

We went to Great Wolf Lodge for 2 nights this week. We left Monday and came back home on Wednesday. I am glad that we decided on 2 nights this trip. It was much more relaxing and we didn't have to rush around and try to get to the pool before we had to leave. It was nice to have one day where we could come and go as we pleased. Jason wasn't too much fun and preferred to sit on a chair and watch Bryce and I play or stay in the room for most of the trip, but he did occasionally come out. Jason and Bryce both loved the arcade though. Bryce played every game that had something he could ride--for example a motorcycle racing game or car racing game. I have some great pics of Bryce on a "crotch-rocket" (as Bryce informed me it was called) and a Harley.

We are hoping to get back again next year, but we will have to see since Bryce will be in kindergarten next year. This will severally limit our weekday trips.

We upgraded our room this time and got one with a fireplace. It was very nice to keep the chill away.

Bryce enjoying our balcony/deck. It was freezing outside, so we were not out long.

Chocolate World 2009

Today Breckin, Bryce, and I went to Hershey's Chocolate World. It was Breckin's maiden trip on the ride. He kept pointing to the lights and seemed to enjoy all the sights and sounds. As always, I enjoyed the smells---chocolate--yummmmm. Bryce became a factory worker for the first time today and he seemed to enjoy it. He and Breckin donned factory hats and went to work. He enjoyed pushing the BIG green button to drop kisses into the little box.
After our tour, we went shopping and bought a large shopping bag full of different chocolates--mostly kisses. I have a new love of coconut filled kisses!! Bryce is in love with the caramel filled ones. By tomorrow, we will be sick of them all, but we are enjoying them tonight.
