Weekend at the Waterpark


To celebrate our 27th birthdays, Matt and I thought it would be fun to go to the Wilderness Resort in Wisconsin Dells. Matt and I have been there many times before, but it was Grant’s first! We stayed in a two bedroom suite with my mom, my grandma and my cousin Sam all joining us. Kristin drove up to join us for the day and Mandy, Josh, Joe, Terri and Dennis were all also staying at the resort in a different room. This resort had three indoor waterparks and boy did that cause baby overload! Haha…

We left Sunday morning and went to Monk’s immediately for lunch. A few of us then went on a horse and buggy ride before hitting the first waterpark. Grant was definitely not sure about anything that he was seeing. He knew that he liked water, but was not too sure about this much of it all at once! Therefore, I took him back to our room to play with his familiar toys and ordered Moosejaw pizza (our favorite!). That night Matt and my mom went to Ho Chunk Casino and came back with more money than they left with…so that’s always a good thing!

Day two was Matt’s birthday! Yay! We started the day at Paul Bunyan’s for breakfast and then headed back to the waterpark where we had a cabana reserved for the day. Grant liked this waterpark slightly better than the other one because it had a lot more room for him to run around (and not get sprayed by water in the mean time). After a tiring day in the water, all 11 of us went to Damon’s for dinner and to catch the Brewer’s game on their huge screen TV.

Our last day came way too quickly, but we decided to do a little “dry park” action that day and go to the arcade instead of press our luck with another waterpark. Between all of us, we ended up “winning” Sam over 1,000 tickets so she could pick out some nice prizes. We then went to Survivors for lunch and headed home…relaxed and tired. What a great weekend away!
