End of T-Ball Season

Carter had his last game of the season this weekend. He's really loved t-ball, and we look forward to more seasons in the future. And for his first time playing, we think it was a great experience for him overall! And to celebrate the team, we had a fun team party at Gatti Town afterwards.

Last time at bat.
 Ella going to hang by the dug out.
 Sweet girl with her Daddy.
Last inning!

Last line of handshakes. Carter's #4
 Pizza time with friends. 
 Getting a handshake and his trophy from Coach Brian.

He's so proud of that thing! 
 And I think Daddy is too. :)
 Carter and Gavin. Sweet friends and teammates.
 Time for fun and games!


 Watching the boys in these bumper cars was pretty funny!
 Blurry kids in a swinging boat!
 And the kids on this virtual reality coaster was hysterical!!
 The girls had a turn too, and we could not stop laughing!

Great party and a wonderful season with lots of nice boys and their sweet families!

Great Wolf Lodge

We took the kids and spent a night at Great Wolf Lodge this week. Carter has been twice before, but is tall enough now to ride some slides that he couldn't before, and this was Ella's first time! They had a blast, and were completely worn out for basically 2 days straight! 
 Ready for some fun!!

26 week bump!
Love that tongue out.... pretty sure she used it to kick and swim!!
I know I'm biased, but this girl is cute, yall!
And this kid is a fish

Ella giving me the wave. This is her thing, anytime she sees me from a distance, I get the sweetest wave and smile.
Lots of fun in the water!



Lots of snack breaks!!
Later we moved indoors for more fun

Little kid slides first, Ella LOVED them!!
Waiting in line, and that wave!


We played until about 7 the first night. We were all starving, so we headed back to the room for a quick clean up and change, then back down to go out to dinner. We happened to hit a little show they were doing, so we hung around long enough for that before heading out to have Mexican food!
This was at dinner..... think someone might be tired??? He asked if he could use my bag as a pillow, ha!!
Mmmm, banana pudding!
Silly face
Family shot. I can see just how tired we all are!!
Headed back in, and hit story time this time!
Carter was dying to have Ella sleep with him. She wasn't as into the idea (she wanted to sleep with Daddy), but we talked her into trying it. After lots of giggling in bed, they passed out sometime right around 10. I got up and snapped this picture about 10:30. Sweet, tired, perfect babies. It lasted until about 2:30 when Carter woke us up saying, "Daddy, Ella's kicking me." Eric went and looked, and Ella was completely horizontal across the bed with her feet right in Carter's face. Poor guy. She slept with Eric the rest of the night. And then everyone was up at 6. yay. :/
Morning cartoons!

Waiting to get into the water park just before it opened, we happened upon these little mascots. Ella was eager to meet them and have her picture taken, Carter was not.
Fun in the waves!






Snack time selfie!
Carter and Eric coming out of the big slide!
Love my girl.
And this gorgeous boy.
Getting tired!
Lazy river and more slides inside!

The kids had so much fun, and will be talking about Great Wolf Lodge for a while, I'm sure!!
