Since my dad takes his vacation to Boy Scout Camp every year, and my husband takes his vacation to Sturgis, my mom and I always like to take the boys on our own little mini-vacation to Sioux Falls each summer. We see it as a chance to get out of town for a few days, buy the boys their back-to-school clothes, and just have fun! Ok, with 2 boys that HATE shopping, the back-to-school clothes shopping = NOT an ounce of fun and TONS of bribing, but it always feels good to get that out of the way! :) I've posted some pictures of all the fun that we did have...
CHUCK E CHEESE: Always a highlight for the boys! While the food is far from great, the games sure are fun!
HOTEL WATER PARK: We usually stay at the Ramada, which has a nice little indoor water park that the boys enjoy! They LOVE their swim time!
WILD WATER WEST WATER PARK: This year, now that the boys are older, my mom and I decided to treat the boys to a fun day at Wild Water West! At first (before we got there), they were a little nervous and didn't think they would like it, but once they found out what it was all about, they had an absolute BLAST! They loved the bumper boats (ok, well, Landon didn't really love them after getting his stuck), the wave pool, lazy river, mini-golf, and all the fun play areas at the park! We spent 7 1/2 hours there, which exhausted my mom and I, but the boys still had energy left to go back to our hotel and swim some more!
We had such a fun time, and look forward to our trip next year!
