Happy 9th Birthday Ben & Rachel!!! We took the kids to Great Wolf Lodge (an awesome indoor water park only 3 miles from our house) to spend the night for their 9th birthday (last Thursday night, Friday was their day)! We had lots of fun. Even had a really cool loft room so Ben & Rachel felt like they had their own place in the loft area, with it's own bath. The water park was so fun but at one point we counted 89 steps to the top of the 2 slides we rode over and over on those days. I am guessing we did close to 3000 steps! Whew!
Then we came home Friday night to get ready for their family party on Sat. but found out that Grandma wasn't feeling well (she had a little stomach bug) so we waited until Sunday to celebrate when she was feeling better. Little did we know what was ahead. The day was great but then late Sunday afternoon Grandpa started getting sick. It wasn't a little stomach bug anymore...it was a bad stomach bug that made him so sick he couldn't drive home. Then Monday afternoon it went into the domino effect. Rachel got it by 3, then Molly at 3:45, Ben by 5, Uncle Vic, Uncle Sean, myself that night by 9, Trevor & our nephew Michael by midnight. Then found out this morning that Aunt Maureen got it last night. So 11 of the 14 of us either had it or got it, and it was NO fun. Kids are still out of school today, Thursday but hopefully they will feel like going back tomorrow. Trevor did end up going into the office for a little bit today but only for a couple hours. Hope you are all well and don't get anything like this!!! It is so bad and it is a party that we won't soon forget! :(
