Josh's 21 Birthday.

Last Sunday our family went to the local ECHL hockey game to cheer on the Walleye's for our dear cousin Josh's 21st birthday!  The boys as always had a wonderful time!  Connor got to slap hands with a few players and meet Spike the mascot.  And to top it off, they WON!
 






 
It was great day full of family, fun, hockey, love, birthdays and great times!!

They LOVE the water!

Eric & I have always known the boys were going to LOVE water - we just didn't know it would be this much.  The love baths, washing their hands and doing dishes, along with the normal swimming in pools, lakes, oceans and ponds.  This past weekend was out of control  (In a good way of course).  They had NO idea what they were in for until
 
 
they saw the pools  & slides from a view window!
We went to Uncle Tom & Aunt Lauren's house on Friday for dinner, play & fun.  Then we wandered our way to the hotel.  We spent a little time Friday evening strolling around the hotel to check it all out!




 

 

FINALLY!!!! As the boys (Connor) said,  It was Saturday!!  We were up early (again thanks to Connor) who could barely sleep I'm sure. 
 
 
 We were pool side by 10 - when the pool opened.  We spent hours & hours in the wave pool, going down slides, playing on the water jungle gym and floating around the lazy river!
 






Uncle Tom & Connor racing down the water slides!  I think Uncle Tom won!



Zennon's favorite part.  We could barely pull him away.


 
As if, all of the water didn't tire us out enough ( wait- who are we kidding while all us adults showered and got cleaned up - those boys both took naps) and when it was time for dinner the boys were still sleeping!  lol but, they woke up and were ready to go once again.  We spent the evening playing in the mini arcade.  Unfortunately, I didn't get any pictures of Uncle Tom or Papa Pat (who really got into the games) and won the boys some awesome prizes!!  Thanks!!
 





 
Sadly, it was time to come home:(
 

 
We had such an amazing time with Uncle Tom & Aunt Lauren, Grandma Sandy & Papa Pat!  Thanks for all the fun!!  Connor is still talking about it today!  I'm am almost positive we will be going back there in the future.
 
 
Snuggled up and watching a movie once we were home!  We were all exhausted and Monday was a little rough for all of us!  But, we would all do it again. 
Although, Im hoping our next visit to Cincinnatti is a little warmer weather?!?!?

SNOW!!!

We FINALLY got enough snow to go out and play! 
It was ACTUALLY warm enough to go play in the snow!
Both Connor & Zennon were HEALTHY enough to play in the snow!
So we PLAYED in the SNOW for hours & had a BLAST!!
