December

We've definitely had a December to remember!  Two winter snow storms and a mini-vaca to Great Wolf Lodge in Washington.   Great Wolf Lodge is an all-inclusive, indoor water park resort.  We spent two nights there, and during the day we spent most of our time at the water park, which had a ton of water slides, a wave pool and hot tub. When we wanted to take breaks from the water, we played at the arcade.  There was even story time in the evening with Wiley the Wolf with fake snow falling in the lobby every hour.   So much fun!

With us staying in Oregon for Christmas, we were able to do an Advent calendar.  Our calendar features daily acts of kindness, and the girls wake up every morning, super excited, to find out what activity we will be doing to serve other people. 

The Great Wolf Lodge was decorated beautifully for Christmas.  In the lobby was a huge tree where children could make ornaments and then hang them on the tree.

Dadda helped Sophie and the girls build an awesome igloo.  

Apple cider to warm up.
