Wisconsin Dells

Randy and his family were going on a road trip down to florida and their first stop was at Wisconsin Dells. We got a super good deal and decided to join them. It was only 2.5 hours away and we got to go tubing, ride on some amusement rides and play at the indoor water park with slides and a lazy river. ALL IN ONE DAY! 

We all took turns watching the babies while the others went down the super fun tubing hill. Zola's job was to watch Bode and she was in heaven. He sat on her lap inside a tube. They snuggled until her legs went numb (he kind of weighs a lot).

We got there first thing in the morning with a super short line. It quickly got as long as where Ryan and Dennis are hanging out. Then we started walking up the hill instead of getting towed up.

After I made it up the big hill treck.

Our group of fun! Dennis, Andrew, Ryan, Me, Zola James, Bode, Chrissy, Owen and Randy

Next stop: Amusement rides... Zola had a blast. She was so excited that she forgot that she needed to stick next to me and would start to wander off.

Her absolute favorite ride! It would spin and go up and down.

Dennis jumped on this ride without really knowing what it was going to do. (its a mini free fall ride). He was happy go lucky when he got on but as soon as it started his face was like he was looking death in the eye. Completely blank and white. Afterwards he said that he had fun but that he didn't want to do it again... it was really scary.

James got to ride it next but he knew what he was getting into and loved it. 

We love hanging out with our cousins!

I didn't take any pictures but we spent the rest of the day at the water park. The water slides were super fun. But what I did most of the time was hang out with Zola. and ride the lazy river. There were little slides for toddlers but Zola is super cautious about other kids. She doesn't want to be in anyones way and she doesn't want anyone in her way... She would climb the stairs and wait at the top until there were no other kids even close to the slide. Then she would think about going down and decide against it and walk down the stairs. This happened over and over. When its the third super fun thing that we did all in the same day, we were all pretty exhausted. In the lazy river Chrissy was holding both Andrew and Bode in the tube and several people asked if they were twins. I love that they will be the same age... built in best friends just like the others.
