youth in sports education day! Olivia was so brave. She agreed to try this out, tried every sport and didn't even know anyone there. She liked basketball the best :) |

Great Wolf Lodge. |
This trip was unbelievable. We surprised Olivia on Sunday morning. I had her suitcase packed with her swimsuits and a poster I made inside that said "surprise, we're going to Great Wolfe Lodge!" We stayed one night and got to swim and play from Sunday afternoon until Monday afternoon. This trip was all about Olivia. We are certainly quite lucky in all the fun trips we get to take, but this was really the only one that was purely for her. It was a blast! She had so much fun doing all the water stuff, a terrifying ropes course and making a sloth at build-a-bear. We ate mediocre food right in the hotel, got dessert and pop with every meal and stayed up late. It was truly a perfect 2 days and I'm so happy we went!
