Great Wolf Lodge - Concord

We had a really long, fun weekend. We left on Saturday and since Brent took Monday off, we didn't have to come back until late last night. The greatest part about the trip was that we both felt like we had been gone an entire week!

Since the kids aren't peeing in their pants anymore and mainline juice like no other, it took an extra hour to get up there. Staying true to form, our first stop was IKEA and then we headed to the mall so Santa could hit up the Disney store. We checked into our hotel, went out to dinner and then stalked the Lowes Motor Speedway since it was right next door.

In the morning, we checked into Great Wolf Lodge which was pretty much the purpose of our entire trip. We played in the waterpark all day barely pausing at all to eat and got up early the next morning to play some more. The kids had a blast! Callie was overly cautious of the water slides at first, but by the second day she was going down them like a pro. Wyatt was obsessed by floating on his back completely in his own world. It was so funny because even in the shallowest part of the pools, he was determined to float his way to his destination.

Yesterday, they were getting pretty exhausted so we let them play until the meltdowns hit the point of no return before packing up and heading home. It was such a great weekend for the kids although, I would probably wait to go back to the lodge until one of them is at least 42 inches tall. At that point, they can go on all the big slides with an adult and wouldn't be confined to the little kid areas. Brent and I had fun, but I was over wading in kiddie piss after 2 days.
