A weekend escape

This weekend Josh, I and the kids went to Wisconsin Dells and stayed at a waterpark resort. We had such a great time. It was so nice to have nothing to do but play in the water. We did hit a few snags in the beginning when Evan realized he forgot his suitcase at home. Luckily that was solved easily by a trip the Old Navy Outlet where I used my bargain finding skills to replace most of what he needed for the same price as I'd normally pay for 1 pair of pants for him! Josh lost a contact lens in the wave pool and scratched his eyeball but he's doing better now. After we got passed those things, we had a fabulous time.

Here are the kiddos...they actually stood still long enough for Mom to get a photo.

We went to Build-A-Bear while and Abby got a new baby kitty:

Abby helped me make a husky. It was a gift from Josh for getting my thyrogen shots and either a yay-I'm-still-in-remission gift or a wow-that-sucks-you-have-cancer gift. We put a heartbeat in it and it's so cool! You press it's chest and it feels like there is a heart beating in there.

We also (as we do every time we go to Wisconsin) went to our favorite winery to get some wine for the upcoming holidays. The fall colors everywhere we went were so beautiful, but especially here.

And for anyone wondering, Lake Delton is still gone. Here's where it should be. Notice the "water taxi" sign....
