Great Wolf Never Fails

For a little mini vacation for the family Brian and I treated the girls to a night at Great Wolf Lodge in Cincinnati as a Valentine’s gift.  We hadn’t been in a couple of years and so their little memories were fuzzy, but Great Wolf proved to be a great time once again.

We went on a week day night when the girls, fortunately, had some time off of school.  This, I would recommend to anyone going because the weekends there can get crazy and with little ones it is a lot harder to keep track of them in a sea of brightly colored suits.  From the moment you walk in the fun starts.

The lobby is fun!

 

The rooms are even fun!

We started in the water park and played and played.  Every inch of the place was memorized before we left that night.

Going back to the room, we got dressed and headed to dinner and to watch the bedtime story show with the girls. 

(Note: This is what happens when a short wife hugs her tall husband when she is still wearing a wet bathing suit)

You would think they would be exhausted after all of this because WE sure were, but with all six of us staying in one room for a special night there is only one solution.  MOVIE NIGHT!  We watched Rio for the first time and it was really good.  We all laughed and enjoyed it.  We lost Journey and Lana toward the end, but Trinity and Skyla held their eyes open until the credits rolled.

We packed breakfast for the room and then headed for some arcade action and the pool again before checking out and leaving. 

SO much fun.  SO many good memories.  SO many firsts for the girls.  They all went on some big water slides and Skyla was able to go on the adult ones because she is such a tall little monkey.  We had friends that we saw there and splashed with too.  If you ask the girls what their favorite part was though?  The hot tub was the unanimous answer.  Go figure!

I loved it and I can’t wait to go back again.  Until next time.   Awooooooooo…….!
