Day Ten

Sledding!!!  The kids' dream come true.  There was just enough snow for us and the hill was just the right size for us.  Grandpa J had got some sleds and we were ready to go.  The kids had a blast and never got tired or cold (well, except for EG).  Precious, precious pictures.

The kids had a blast and probably could have stayed much longer.  But, it was cold and they were covered in snow.  So after a good while we had to call it quits.  They were sad to go but did not complain!  I think they love, love, loved it.  And it was so much fun just watching them.  Although, hubby and I did take a turn. ;)

We did not have many big plans this day.  We had to head out the next morning to finish up our trip. So, from here we went to the Goodwill store and found a bunch of really great buys.  (Two official Green Bay packer kids' jerseys.  They had the number 4 on them but we figured they might be worth something someday.)

Then we headed back to the hotel to get lunch and pack.  The motivation to get the kids going was that as soon as everything was packed up and ready for daddy to take to the car, they could spend the rest of the day at the water park.  So, needless to say, they packed up in record time.

We spent the rest of the afternoon and most of the evening at the water park.  Grandpa J and Nona K came by and sat at the water park and chatted and watched the kids play.  We got take out barbecue and ate together.  After dinner we visited a little bit more and then we had to say our good byes.  It was sad, but we had made a ton of really great memories!

We let the kids go back to swim for a little bit.  Then we had to get some rest.  We had another busy day with packing up and heading out to make one final stop to see family before heading back for home.

It was a whole lot easier unpacking the car with no snow and 35 degree weather then it was packing up the next morning.  My brother came by, so that was a big help.  More tomorrow on our last couple days . .
