Fun Filled Weekend

Last Thursday was the end of the school year for Ben and Cami.  This fall, Cami will be entering Kindergarten and Ben will be in the first grade.  They will both be gone full days.  It is going to be a hard transition this fall losing both of them to the school system.  

Since Thursday was a half day for their last day of school, we headed up to Wisconsin Dells.  We met our friends, Becca and Bill and their kids Caleb, Abby, and Liam.  The kids had fun splashing around at the hotel pool and later walking around downtown Dells and looking at the boats.

On Friday, we spent the afternoon at the Wilderness waterparks.  They went down waterslides, played in the wave pool, climbed on all the play structures in the water, and later played in the dry area play area.  They had a fun filled and tiring day.  

On Saturday, our friends Kris and Jason and their kids Jared and Kelly, met us at the hotel.  The kids enjoyed more playmates.  They spent several hours in the hotel waterpark.   We checked out of the hotel and the kids quickly fell asleep on the ride back to Madison.  Kris and Jason met us back at our house.  The sitter arrived around 3pm to watch all 5 kids (very brave girl) so the 4 adults could head to an Adoption seminar in Stoughton.  The kids were happy to have the afternoon and evening to play together.

We feel very blessed to have had time together with good friends. We are thankful for beautiful weather and a great time and safe travel.  We are looking forward to spending the rest of the long weekend together as a family.  Below are a few pictures of the kids with their teachers from this year and pictures from our trip to the Dells.  Enjoy your weekend!
