Spring Break

We went for a weekend getaway to the new Great Wolf Lodge that opened up near us. The water park is inside the lodge and is only for the guests. They have a restaurant, spa and snack shops so you don't ever have to leave. We had a wonderful time and it was great to spend some time with Brian and the kids!




The lodge has a huge lobby with lots of seating and a huge fireplace.


Every night they have storytime for all the kids.


Everyone is tired after spending the day at the water park.



Giant clock in hotel lobby.


The wave pool was everybody's favorite.


Sienna loved the litte water fountains.



Spending a whole weekend with dad is the best!






We will for sure plan another visit to the Great Wolf Lodge!

A Word From the Wise



The other day we were in the car and Colin informed me that mom's don't work ...they just go shopping. What is he trying to tell me?

Pickin' A Winner!

Sienna is going through a phase (let's hope it's a phase) where she is infatuated with sticking her finger up her nose. She never picks anything out she just sticks her finger up and leaves it there for awhile. I have to admit it's pretty funny when we are at home, but out in public it gets a little embarrasing. Lets hope this doesn't become a habit!






Sienna often wakes up from her nap really cranky so here are a couple of pictures of her throwing her 2 year old tantrums.

Happy Birthday Sienna!

I can't believe my baby girl is 2! I guess she is no longer a baby but a toddler but she will always be MY baby. We took her to good old McD's for her birthday dinner. She loved it of course, especially when she gets her own soda pop.


After dinner we got all the kids ice cream which was a treat because they usually ask and I usually say "No".


Most of the time that she was opening presents she had this look of concern on her face.


Finally a happy face!


She has started to like to watch TV and Dora is one of her favorite shows, so we got her a Dora balloon which she like to carry around the house.

Birthday cake time. No, I didn't make this cake, I'm not as talented as most of my friends who make adorable cakes, but hey I can buy a cute one right?


Happy Birthday Sienna, we love you!
