A Much Needed and Enjoyed Vacation

My husband and I celebrated our 7 year wedding anniversary back in June, but June was packed full of things to do - so we decided to take our trip in August.  This past weekend was the time and I have to say it did not in anyway dissapoint!

I was looking forward to this trip for weeks! (maybe months) - and the whole week before I was willing to do almost anything because I was going to Wisconsin Dells that weekend! 

There was so much to do and we had so much fun!  We laughed and smiled and enjoyed each others company so much.  I haven't worn such a big smile in a very long time!  We spent Friday at Mt. Olympus, which was very fun, Saturday was cold and rainy so we went horseback riding and rode the Ducks (the amphibious adventure...drives on land and in water) and walked around down town after a nice dinner at Cavarelli's.  And Sunday was the big part of the trip, Noah's Ark!  I LOVE water and water parks and Noah's Ark was everything a huge waterpark should be!  Although, after a cold, rainy weekend it was pretty packed on Sunday and most of the newer rides had lines from 45min - 1 1/2 hrs long.  Needless to say we did not go on Scorpion's Tail or Black Anaconda (they had the longest lines).  Aaron's favorite ride was Time Warp, and I agree it was really fun - but I'm suffering from a real case of whiplash from that one.  My favorite was Sting Ray, which was nearly the same amount of adrenaline... without the whiplash.  We finished our trip with dinner at Mexicali Rose on the river and a stop at a cheese shop to stock up on delicious Wisconsin cheese.  Here are a few pictures from our trip.
