Our fun week

Wow, three posts so far in the past couple weeks! I'm turning into a blogging fool!!! After this I probably won't post for a while because the excitement may hit a little plateau. But we had Caleb's birthday last week and this week we had two things planned for a while so I have to post some pics. The first fun thing was that we went to Wisconsin Dells. It's arguably the best waterpark city in America. Noah's Ark is there (which claims to be America's largest waterpark. Is this true? I don't really know. But it is very big.) But we stayed overnight at the Wilderness Resort which has three or four indoor waterparks and three outdoor waterparks. But having a three year old dominating your trip pretty much means going down the same slide in the kiddie are 98 times. I give you, exibit A:


So in addition to the kiddie slide, we did go down a couple bigger slides too. But most the time was spent just splashing around for two days with the boys. Here's a couple more pictures.



We also ate at Cracker Barrel, Josh's favorite restaurant. It has this big porch with all these rockers and it's set up like an old country store.

Which reminds me, on a side note, the most exciting part of the week for me (the rest was fun too but this was exciting for me) is that we finally bought a porch swing! When we bought this house the porch had been enclosed poorly and I dreamed about how nice it would be to have a big open porch with a porch swing. So it's finally ready! Here's the boys chilling on the swing.

So then after we got home from the Dells, we woke up the next morning and went to spend the day with Thomas the Tank engine - every 3 year old boy's dream. (Well, it was Gabe's at least.) He was in Green Bay and they have this engine that looks like Thomas and all these outdoor activies kids can do. They also had all these old trains with passenger cars that we looked around in. It was pretty interesting. I wish I was born in the 40's so I could be a teen in the 50's when life was more wholesome and people rode trains. (I don't know how I'd survive without a microwave but everything else would be cool.)




So that was our busy week! We had a lot of fun. Hope you're all having fun and enjoying summer too!
