Months ago, we thought it would be so fun to surprise the girls with a trip to the Texas Great Wolf Lodge. Megan talks about it weekly and wants to know when we can go back. We planned to drive through Ft Worth after our Austin trip and stay one night. The great thing about this place is you can pay for one night, but use the waterpark for both days. After the short drive from Austin to Ft Worth, we pull up to the giant building and the girls are clueless. I tell Alyssa to read the building and she just matter-of-factly says, “The Great Wolf Lodge. Is that a different one?” Yes, I say. To my disappointment, Megan had no reaction. Alyssa calmly say, “Can we go in?” Like a trip inside the lobby would be enough for her. We drive up and I casually ask if they want to play and then it hits, the excitement comes out and we are in for a fun day at the waterpark. We play all day, spend one night, play till noon, then hit the road for the 12 hour trip home.
