Wow time really does go by fast....when you're having a BLAST!

July is a BIG birthday month in my family, so that means a whole lotta celebrating! Cierra turned 10, & I turned 35 this month. Big big milestones.......so many pictures taken......I'll have to divide up the posts:)

Cierra's Birthday!

After her "park" birthday party last year, Cierra let me know (literally as we were packing up from the park) that that would be her last birthday at the park. It went a little something like this,
"Mama?"
"Yes honey?"
"This will be my last birthday at the park."
"Why? what do you mean?"
"I'm a little too old don't you think?"

Well that pretty much sums it up. She is too old for my little park birthdays.....too old for the little goody bags with the cheap plastic slinky and sunglasses.............too old for the princess cake.....
So we made a plan that day. Her birthday for her 10th, would be at Great Wolf Lodge. She could invite 2 friends and we would stay for 2 days:)

Fast forward one year later and we did it! Great Wolf Lodge was amazing!! Not only did Cierra have a blast, but Kenny & I had some of the best laughs we've ever had together!! Going down the Tornado was quite an experience. I thought we were going to flip......I still do not know how we didn't. The girls got to get chocolate facials and hand massages.....all in all it was a wonderful birthday party. One that we will never forget!
Here are some of the highlights!!
