A well-deserved pause.

In hindsight, I realize that last week I reached my full capacity - my brain was on overdrive, I could do no more. I was either forgetful or making ridiculous mistakes. Thankfully, my state of inadequate mom, wife and coworker was just in time for our little getaway to The Great Escape Indoor Water Park - as Henry would say, that place is "CRAZY!" Which in Henry's world equals awesome!

We soaked up every minute of no schedule and nothing to do but play... the kids, and Matt and I, were in heaven, Below are a few of our favorite shots.





This part of the park was magical - a bit like Willy Wonka's Factory.



Jack was so independent on this trip and so brave! He was willing to try anything - he even surfed - my heart about sank when I saw his little 60 pound body jump out on the board with high speeding water barreling at him. I thought for sure he was going to be thrown off, but sure enough he did amazing - never even fell once! Jack did spend a lot of time on the tube slides - up and down all day. Our kids have never been so tired!




Henry loved our water shoes... it's all he could talk about and he never wanted to take them off. He insisted on wearing them to dinner every night... as well as bring the coffee pot from our hotel room with him everywhere, but that's a different story.

I loved it...


every minute.


My kids are amazing.
