The last two weeks have been full: very busy, and lots of fun. At school, the boys participated in a costume parade (around the parking lot) and a Halloween party. Zachary was a Red S.P.D. Power Ranger, and Cameron was Superman. Then, we went to our church for a Fall Festival. Zachary slid down the "world's largest inflatable slide," which must have been three stories tall! I've posted pictures here:

After Halloween, we took some time off for a "staycation" at the Great Wolf Lodge in Grapevine. That place is amazing. If you haven't been there, the hotel houses a huge indoor (and some outdoor) water park. It has several different play areas, from toddler-sized to adult-sized water slides and splash parks, a wave pool, and water slides. The only thing that held Zachary back was his height. You have to be 42" to ride some of the bigger rides, and he's only 41. But, he tried. Even stood on his tippy toes when they measured. Sometimes that worked; sometimes it didn't. Anyway, we wore the boy out. Cameron had a good time too, splashing in the shallow water and the fountains. Inside the hotel, there is also an arcade, an interactive magic adventure and all sorts of stuff that we didn't try out this time. We're planning another mini-vay in December, so we'll see what kind of fun we can have then. Our few pictures (we were too busy to take too many) are posted here:

The Great Wolf introduced Zachary to the wild world of BUNKBEDS! He had such a good time, up and down, up and down, up and down.... that we decided to get him his own set for his 4th birthday. He loves them, but the up and down business hasn't stopped. The boy sure has developed the knack for "peeing at will." I think his record number of get out of bed to potty trips is now at 8! Check out the great set up:
