The Dells

On the spur of the moment we headed to the Dells with Chris and Amy and girls. We had a lot of fun but wish that the weather would have been a couple degrees warmer - the water at the park was COLD!!! We typically head to Noah's Ark but we switched parks since the other park had an indoor area and a few roller coaster rides. I am not sure that I am willing to admit yet that I was a traitor to my favorite park.

Tom (our GPS) took us on a crazy route in Wisconsin but we got there a little nauseous and excited. My little girl is growing up and is tall enough for the mid-size roller coasters which she rode on with glee. Four more inches to get to the big stuff! Actually Drew is tall enough too, but my scared of flies boy was too chicken to take the plunge. He was content to ride on the kids roller coaster for hours - and would have if we'd let him. Ally was also went on some of the bigger waterslides with us. She was bummed though when we told her that she couldn't ride on some because she was too short. They did let us take both kids on a couple on our lap on a tube. Ally is in the first yellow slide on the right. Jason and Chris flew right on by her at the end.



We also went mini-golfing in the morning before we left. Drew struggled remembering how to hold his club and continually came up for help. Such a sweetie! He has been practicing in the basement since we got home - I hope he doesn't break the tv!
