Wisconsin Dells

On Veterans Day Weekend, we traveled for our first weekend away since moving to MN. We met the Clark's and the Torio's, our dear friends left behind in IL, at our new halfway meeting point, the ever-exciting waterpark capital of the world--Wisconsin Dells. We arrived late in the evening on Friday and the kids stayed up late to play with Madelyn and Noah, then got up early for breakfast and a day full of waterslides and splashing fun. Owen arrived the following day and the kids were all back together again. They had a blast together. Saturday night we ordered pizza in the room and baked cookies for dessert. The time together was too short, and us girls didn't get our ice cream or much time for girl talk (we all fell asleep early...Jessica had a cold, and Kristine and I will blame it on waking up early with the kids, but honestly, maybe we're just old and boring). We headed back for more water fun Sunday morning before we left...and vowed that we just may have to make this a tradition!
As we were getting ready to leave, Conor told Madelyn, "I really miss you Madelyn" as he gave her a hug and laid his head on her chest. So sweet!
