Great fun at Great Wolf Lodge!

The snow that fell last night was just on the grass this morning.  We left around 10am to head to Concord, NC to visit The Great Wolf Lodge.  (Hunter's birthday present)  The roads were dry and the drive was pretty quick.  It took a little over 2 hours.

Austin snacking on some cucumbers on the way. 


Hunter's silly expression as we approached our destination. 


Great Wolf Lodge!  An indoor water park/resort.



I read that we could not check in until 4:00pm, but that we could start using the water park at 1pm. We got here a little after noon and our room was already ready. The boys had fun checking out the room. They have their own separate bed area with a bunkbed and their own TV.




Hunter took about 17 pictures of the television from the top bunk.


We made it down to the water park a little after 1 and stayed until about 5:00pm.  There is a section for young children that both boys liked.  Austin went down the little slides over and over again.  Hunter is tall enough to go on all of the water rides except for one.  I took him on a big raft ride and he was having a great time until the end.  He didn't like how we got splashed.  So he spent about 30 minutes sulking.  He eventually got over it and had fun in the pool and the wave pool.  I bribed him to go on another water slide.  He had been asking for a magic quest wand, so I told him if he went on the slide he could get one.  It worked...and he loved it.










Hunter and his new magic quest wand.  It's a game here at the lodge (and other places) where you wave the wand around to open different things/find object, etc...



Hunter eating a salad...wonder where he got that habit from?




When the waitress asked who wanted dessert Hunter responded with, "This guy right here." And was pointing to himself.


Austin realizing he was the only one at the table that did not have a piece of chocolate cake.


The boys with their wolf ears...for some reason it came with their dinner?




Austin and his new wolf.  They have their own little "build a bear" store. 




Having fun in the arcade.




Looking forward to another fun day tomorrow!  The boys were so tired we didn't make it down to story time.  Next time, I guess.
