We just arrived back home today after a weekend at a huge water park in Wisconsin Dells. The kids had so much fun swimming, and Silas was beyond thrilled to finally get to wear his spiderman swim suit. This was more of a work/play vacation, as we went so that Tom could run the videocast for our church's student conference. So while he was pretty busy working most of the time, the kids and I enjoyed playing and swimming, and my mom even came along so it was far more manageable to wrangle all three kids. (Thanks Mom!!)It hardly even registered that Sunday was both Valentine's Day and Chinese New Year, two holidays that we would normally enjoy celebrating as a family. But getting a break from the winter cold was certainly a good celebration for us. We've been to this water park a couple of times over the past few years, and it was fun to see the kids becoming more brave about which pools and slides they wanted to experience. Even Isaac had a lot of fun swimming, though he was equally happy once we finally made it back home. And for that matter, I'm pretty happy to be home again too. Hope you had a fun holiday weekend, however you celebrated!
