Cousin Christmas

This weekend was the second year we did a Cousin Christmas with Chad, Kelly and Cooper.  We went to the Great Wolf Lodge this year and had SO much fun!  We can even mark it down as a huge success as both families lasted the whole night!  Last year we left the Gaylord at 3:00am! Ha!

Madie checking out the decor



 Loving the toddler area!

 She eventually even figured out how to do the jet ski by herself. 

 Our sweet little Cooper.  He had so much fun and is such a big slider!  He must have gone down them 100 times.  Madie loved watching him and clapping as he came down. 

 Wading around.

 After the first day in the water park we spent a little time in the arcade while Chad and Mike went to get dinner.  Cooper drove the ice cream truck and Madie drove the hot dog truck.  Ha!

 Waiting for story time.  Can you tell we were telling them to say cheese?  Ha!

 The next day we spent a little more time at the water park before heading out.  Madie loved the wave pool!

 We had lunch at Rainforest cafe.  Madie was not real keen on the animals moving every 5 minutes.  She spent lunch in my lap.  We then went to Bass Pro to see Santa.  We walked all the way up to him and said hi but that was it!  No sitting in Santa's lap this year.  We did ride his reindeer though!

 Coloring a picture for Santa. I picked on with a little girl sitting on Santa's lap for Madie.  She didn't bite.  Ha!

We then headed back to our house for fun at home.  Madie loved having the company.  She LOVES trying to do everything her big cousin Cooper does!  Kelly and I even rented the Help Friday night.  It was a great weekend and we had so much fun spending it with our precious family.  To think at this time next year there will be two more little ones to join in the fun.
