And Away We Go!

I am so looking forward to this weekend. We are taking a mini vacation to the brand new Grand Wolf Lodge this weekend. It is the first indoor water park/hotel in Washington. And the best part? We can drive. Kelly is so burned out on airplane travel that the idea of flying anywhere for "fun" just does not appeal to him.

I came to a very startling realization last weekend. I need to buy a swimming suit for our water themed getaway. Duh. I don't know why that hadn't quite occurred to me. I think I was blocking that little detail out. Lovely. Do you think I could find a maternity swimsuit anywhere this week? That would be a big no. I finally gave up and ordered one from Old Navy.com. I guessed on the size and yep, it is too big on top. A maternity swimsuit is a hard thing because while it is a bit big right now, this summer it won't be, and I really don't want to buy two of these beauties. I am just going to wear it in all it's maternity glory. It's not like I am going to the water park to pick up guys. (That would be a bit awkward with my husband there. Hehehe) I did pick up a cute magenta cover-up which coordinates perfectly with my magenta crocs. Oh yeah, I said it. I love my magenta crocs. I also picked up some shorts because last weekend when it was 80 degrees in our house the only shorts that fit me were Kelly's boxers. Now that is classy, let me tell you. I had to do something about that situation.

Not bad, right? I am not entirely sure what to pack for the weekend honestly. I can't imagine we will be spending ALL our time in the pool, but you never know with Zoë. She loves the water. Any tips would be fantastic. I did buy Zoë a fun swim suit for the occasion that will let her play in the water without a bulky life jacket. This is going to be a great weekend. It will be wonderful to spend time together as a family. I wanted to go on at least one more family vacation before the baby comes, so I am a happy girl.  I don't plan on going anywhere that requires me to be in a swimsuit this summer. Yikes! Although I may be singing another tune when it is 90 degrees outside. LOL!

Have a great time, Maegan! We do spend most of our time at the waterpark and then we usually bring a game system or something to play when we're in the room. Don't miss the nightly stories in the lobby and the wolf should be walking around the hotel at some point (our girls loved to see him). Have fun!!

Wow, this place looks really cool. Which suite did you pick. I can't wait to see how it went. I hope you enjoyed the heck out of yourselves.
