The past couple of weeks

Whew, just now finding time to get a few pictures on here.

I love these random, everyday pictures that I capture - because that is how we are living right now - our everyday life.  And we love it!

 Meemaw watched the kiddos when they had a break off school last week - and she was able to make it to Colin and Maggie's Valentine's Day party.  No picture of Colin and Meemaw, but she was there, too!

We went out to dinner one day last week and the kids wanted to try out a taste of a lemon...

 Colin did okay with it, just made some funny faces...

 Maggie was not a fan...At All!

But she was okay enough to do 'silly faces' for a while when we were waiting for our check

 Colin has been loving to play board games after dinner at night - this particular night he was super proud of his Angry Bird structure he built.  Soon to be knocked down by the one and only...

Moose.

 He's so curious about everything - he gets his big ol' nose into all that we do.

 He can "shake" now.

I know, I know... big time stuff here!  Isn't he amazing :)

 The kids wore their "blue crew" shirts to bed one night.  They love matching when they can.

Moose loves it, too!

 Grammie and Granddad got the kids lips suckers for Valentine's day - pucker up!

And finally, we surprised the kids with a trip to Great Wolf Lodge this weekend.

We had never been there and were looking for a little getaway from the winter blues.

This was a perfect trip for us, one night away from home, but tons of fun!

The waterpark there is HUGE and has tons of slides that both kids can go down.  Way more than at Cocokey because they are much more strict with height policies there.

 The kids got 2 sets of wolf ears to wear

 Their scary wolf growls

 The hotel did story time at 8 pm, these little animals moved and told a little story before Wiley the wolf came out to help read a story

 Wiley the wolf

You can't really tell here, but there were TONS of kids all lined up listening to this story.

 We stayed a little after storytime to get a picture with Wiley.

Fresh out of the pool on the last day - so much fun!

And somehow we managed to get out of there without spending a dime on anything 'extra' at the hotel.  

It was so much fun.  The kids had a blast going down the slides and playing in the lazy river.
