The perfect vacation for my family

Our lives get so busy, raising our 2 and 4 year old, that I really can't remember the last time we relaxed. My husband works two jobs and we don't get a lot of time together as a family. We have decided that this year we are going to take a "mini" vacation. We didn't want to spend a lot of money (which we don't have) and we didn't want to travel too far - next year we are going to take a big vacation to celebrate our 10 year anniversary. So, we started looking at places in Wisconsin.

Lucky for us, we have one of the greatest vacation spots in the country - Wisconsin Dells. For those of you that are not familiar with the Dells, it is home to the waterpark, indoor and outdoor. Noah's Ark is the largest waterpark in America. Check out the link if you get a chance, it is really something to see:)

We found an AWESOME package. It is 4 days and 3 nights for $400. This includes lodging at Meadowbrook Resort, a day of fun at Mt. Olympus Indoor Water and Theme Park, and 2 full days at America's newest multi-level indoor waterpark "Lost Rios". There is campfires every night (may be a little cold though) with song and smores, and a waterpark at Meadowbrook for us to enjoy. We also found out that they have a 24 hour shuttle to Ho-Chunk casino which also offers childcare. So, looks like we may be doing a litle bit of gambling as well.

Now, we just have to decide when we are going to go. We are looking at next month but we'll see how things pan out. It is exciting just to talk about it!

Happy Wednesday everyone...don't forget to sign up for the free book raffle at www.uponfurtherreview.org
