Americana

As part of our Christmas from my mother we get a family Christmas gift. Last year we went to the Great Wolf Lodge, this year we went to the Americana. It is very similar to the Great Wolf Lodge but on a smaller scale. It was fantastic for us as there are a ton of things for children Riley and Simon's age.



We spent two full days in the waterpark having a blast. Nee Nee and Papa joined us for the day on Saturday as well. Riley can now swim like a fish and did not stop swimmming all day on Saturday only stopping for a 15 minute lunch break. Simon was a bit more reserved and stuck closer to his daddy.

Thumbs up from the boys.

Cooper and I hung out on the deck and watched. My incision has not healed so I wasn't taking any chances of infection by going in the pool. Cooper was more than happy to hang out in the Baby Bjorn.

We exhusted the kids so much in the pools that Simon fell asleep at the table during dinner. He had a quick nap and was ready to go for the pirate sing-a-long at night. Cooper was happy to hang out in Nee Nee's arms.





Thanks again Nee Nee, we had a great time. Staying in a hotel room with three kids was a piece of cake....especially when you exhust them completely in the waterpark all day.
