Sadduols and Noitch

It has been a long time since i've been to Noah's Ark in Wisconsin Dells. This past weekend I came as close to Noah's Ark as I could. My Dad, Mom, Krissy, Russ, Kelsey, Trevor and Gwen all went to the Kalahari resort in the Dells. The indoor water park created a great experience for everyone. Trevor got to wear himself out time, and time again on the kiddie park, and I got to feel like a kid again going down some of the fun slides. Everyone that knows me is aware of the 12 year old inside me. And this kid loves the Toilet bowl flush type water slides. Seriously, if i had access to a slide like that all day, i'd be in heaven.

Another fun part about the trip was the time i got to spend with the Godson. He really is in his element when he can show off his skills in different areas. "Uncle Kevin, watch what I can do!" "Uncle Kevin, come over here and watch me do this!" Of course, i wouldn't be the Uncle that I am if I didn't challenge him on a few things. But overall we had a great time! Kelsey did too! I secretly think she's becoming one of Trevor's favorites as well. He wouldn't let her leave! "No Buhbuh, Kelsey can't leave! We're playing the pillow game!"

The highlight of the weekend for me was playing dominoes. I had heard that its the thing to do in my family now. I like the game, and it really is a family game. My favorite part was when Trevor helped Krissy. He would play and be very patient and listen to what he was supposed to do. Somewhere along the line he called the dominoes "Sadduols." He would claim he had 4 Saduols left and then proceed to tell everyone how many saduols they had. We tried to let him know that we called them tiles, but he wouldn't have any of it. Then came the word Noitch. What this means, i don't think i'll ever find out. But it was enjoyable nonetheless.

It did end up being a vacation that totally drained everyone that attended. I think for the first time Kelsey is actually looking forward to staying in the house for a weekend. Or at least keeping things low key. I concur. :-)

No need to update on Wedding activities.. we're still trying to figure out the same old stuff.

As for me, i'm doing pretty well. Just trying to make it through the work week.

We head to the Wild Game tonight with Jill and Jamie! Looking forward to that! Hopefully we can get a win!

Ho K Peace out!
