Christmas Fun

I always enjoy the Christmas season.Its one of my favorite times of year.During Justin's first two deployments I was home with family during the holidays.Though I missed him I had all the extended family to cheer me up and keep me company.This year I wasn’t able to be home with the family and I was nervous.Who wants to be moping around lonely and depressed at Christmas?In an attempt to distract myself and the kids I booked us a stay at the Great Wolf Lodge for Christmas.I have to say it was FANTASTIC!We all had a blast! I think this may just become a family tradition.

The lodge was decorated beautifully

We even had snow IN the lobby!The kids spend hours (no joke) running around playing magic quest, an interactive game that has treats and treasures hidden throughout the first 5 floors of the lodge

Christmas Eve night we all cuddled up in our new Christmas Pj’s to have popcorn and watch movies.

We love the Great Wolf! Our tradition is to go the first week of September with their 'Not back to school' discounts. Looks like you had a lot of fun, way to go!

What a fun holiday! Looks like they had a lot of fun. We traveled up until two days before Christmas and it sure made it easier for us not to think about daddy being gone. Glad you survived and had a great time!
