Our little artist!

We got a letter from Luke's art teacher saying that his work was selected to be in the Holliston Harvest Fair.  We were very excited and proud of Luke!  We've always known he is a good artist.  From what I could tell, it looks like they picked 3 or 4 children per grade (3rd through 5th) to participate.
 
His assignment was to make a picture all in shapes.

Great Wolf Lodge -

The kids were off school in the middle of the week for a Jewish holiday so we headed to Great Wolf Lodge for the night with some friends. 

I decided that the best way to describe this place is Vegas for kids.  So big and so much going on.  Not a lot of windows and no sense of time.  The indoor water parks are the main attractions but they have everything from indoor bowling, ropes course, mini-golf, arcade, you name it...

Kids had a blast but I think one night was plenty enough (for us moms anyway!)

The lobby is huge and the kids were so excited as soon as we walked in.  They also go these little wolf ears upon check-in (Luke wasn't going to be seen wearing the ears)



 GWL mascot?




 
I think the kids were most excited about the bunk beds.  They loved the "wolf den".  I ended up having the girls and Luke slept in the other room with his buddy -

 Two huge rooms of water fun!


 Isn't it ironic?
 Wolf origami making in the lobby (they really loved this for some reason) -
 Indoor wave pool -
 Two tired little wolf cubs -
 Seeing that we drove through Bolton, we had to stop to get our pumpkins and for a twist cone on the way home -
