Early Birthday Weekend!

We decided at the very last minute to spread my birthday out an entire week (you can do that when you're birthday falls on a Wednesday) and take the boys to Great Wolf Lodge this past weekend!  Just to kick start the week into high gear, we headed down to Grapevine to swim, play, and laugh!

This is how we roll!  Cowboy boots and life jackets baby!
 The water park in GWL is amazing!  It has huge water slides, a giant play house, a lazy river, wave pool, and a small kiddy area that Jett LOVED!
 Our room was themed like a log cabin with bunk beds and murals painted on the walls!
 And of course, we couldn't go south without eating at Uncle Julios (me and GC's favorite).  This car was parked in the parking lot and Cruz just about had a heart attack because it looks just like Bumble Bee from Transformers!  He wanted his picture taken with it!  If we hadn't said no, he would have been inside pretending to drive this bad boy when the owners came out from their nice dinner!  :)
 This is why I will never have skinny thighs!  I LOVE MEXICAN FOOD!  There, I said it!
 Night #1 at the arcade in GWL!  So much fun!
 The second night we were there, we went across the street to the Gaylord Texan Hotel (which is BEAUtiful by the way) to see ICE.  We heard from friends who went last year that it was really cool.  This year it was Shrek themed and it was spectacular!  So amazing that someone actually carved every little detail out of ice!  They keep it at 9 degrees inside so they give you these big blue coats to wear while you go through.  There is an slide made of ice that the big boys went down and at the end there is a huge life size nativity scene all made completely of ice.  I was in awe!  Loved it!
 Night #2 in the arcade! 
We also made a trip over to the Grapevine Mills mall and spent some dinero at the Disney Outlet Store!  You know we have to stock up for our Disney trip in February!!!

Love my precious little family!  Such a great start to an amazing birthday week!!!
