I had a conference to go to at the Great Wolf Lodge, so Jay and the kids came along on Sunday before it got started to enjoy the water park! Hayden was excited the WHOLE way there, and could barely contain himself when we pulled up. By the time we got down to the waterpark, it was just too much for him. I thought he was going to burst!
Lila was so super cute in her little bathing suit! She had outgrown hers for the summer so I got one SUPER cheap on clearance from Carter's. While Jay and Hayden did water slides and the wave pool, she was content to sit in knee deep water, walk a little and be held. The water wasn't as warm as I expected, so I had to take her out about every half hour to warm her up...those little lips got blue!
After a few hours of water sliding and fun, Jay and the kids headed home and I went to bed to get ready for my conference. On Monday night, we headed out to dinner with colleagues, former colleages, one Salem girl who works in financial aid at another school, and one Salem friend from the area. It was a great night! We went to Tsunami, which is the place Jay and I ate on our wedding night in Charleston, SC. We had drinks and hibachi, and I had some great sushi.
Tuesday night we rented out the water park for our conference and I got to go down the water slides. Crazy! We had cupcakes and drinks and rode the slides a few times before heading off to bed. I had a great time and enjoyed not getting up at 530 for a few days, but I sure did miss my family!
