Spring Break 2010

No Florida for us this year but Ryan and I wanted to get away for a couple days so we decided to head to the good, ole Wisconsin Dells!!

As you can see, Layla has everything spring on the brain!

As soon as we got to the Wilderness, a fun waterpark resort in the Dells, Layla had to "check in" with her papa. In fact, Layla kept "calling" papa so often that we had to unplug the phone from the wall.

Next we went to one of the arcades at the resort and Layla pushed a lot of buttons and her mommy found some success with the Deal or No Deal video game :-) As if you would have thought any differently, Layla picked out a lot of balls at the prize counter.

We swam a lot. We made it to the 3 of 3 indoor waterparks at the resort. Layla liked the wave pool and the dumping bucket the best out of everything. She is such a funny girl sometimes.

Here is the bucket dropping the water and then Ryan and Layla waving afterwards (do you see them back there?) Layla would squeal with delight when she was under the water when the bucket dropped.

Still working on those molars :-)

For a meal out, we headed to Buffalo Phil's restaurant. If you have a toddler or child interested in trains, it is a must in the Dells. The train serves drinks and food to you and Layla thought it was the most amazing thing she had ever seen. As a bonus Elmo even went around the track once :-)

Finally we headed to Build-a-Bear at the outlet mall. When we took a peek inside, it was really affordable and we weren't sure if it was because it was at an outlet mall or if it is always so inexpensive (I think the accessories can probably add up fast).

Anyway, at first Layla was only interested in the stroller and stuffed frog she found in the shop but the workers were great with her and she quickly jumped right into the building process. Just in case you didn't guess again, Layla made a cat which she calls Blue :-)

After the outlet mall it was time to head home. Layla enjoyed a ride on the luggage rack, she loves a vacation big or small!

Layla insisted on holding her new ball in the car. Luckily this lasted only about 5 minutes, Layla's arms had to be hurting!

And this is monumental...Layla FELL ASLEEP on the way home. This is not a common occurrence so I had to snap a picture :-)
