A couple of weeks before Rebekah's birthday, we were able to spend a special day celebrating with her for her 7th birthday! As usual, for each girl's birthday we let them choose if they would like to have a birthday party or a special day trip. Rebekah chose again this year to go to Great Wolf Lodge. It was so sweet when she asked about the trip because she said "this way I can share the trip with my sisters too!"
Here's the birthday girl with Wiley the Wolf.
Big smiles headed into the Waterpark except Allie who was too busy checking out all the exciting sights to look at the boring camera!
One of the reasons Bekah was so excited about the Waterpark is because she gotten much taller. Great Wolf has a wristband system and you can ride certain rides based on your height and wristband. She was about 1.5 inches from the green band so she couldn't ride the Tornado yet but she could ride any other ride in the whole area.
Brent took a turn down the slides with the big girls while Allie and I explored the kiddie pool area.
Also this year, Rebekah and Rachel were old enough and tall enough to ride the slides with the double tubes together!
The lazy river was another spot that the little ones loved
Bethany loved her sister's choice to celebrate at Great Wolf too. She was a fan of playing in all the pools.
Brent took Allie and Bethany to have a little rest time and the birthday girl and I along with Rachel took on a few of the big slides!
Bekah mastered the lily pad game on her own without any help this year too!
Allie was old enough this year to love the water area. She was so much fun to watch as she tried to take everything in and play with everything! Pure joy on that face!!
This picture of Bekah on this surf board was one of my favorite of the whole trip! One of the, new to her, rides that she was now tall enough to ride this year was the Wave Rider. We looked at it together and I noticed she kept watching it but looked a little unsure too. After a few minutes I said, " You can do it! Go try it out!" Off she went to get it line. It was a fairly long wait and when it was her turn, the kind lifeguard knelt down beside her and talked to her for about 2 to 3 minutes about how to ride the surfboard. She jumped on and hung on and did awesome riding this ride! I was so proud of how brave she was trying out something new on her own!
Bekah, we love you and we had a great time celebrating your 7th birthday with you!
