    We went back upstairs to our room to change out of our wet suits. Tara & I decided that we should run to Meijer to pick up a few items to eat for breakfast while we were here, as well as some other odds and ends that we would need over the course of the weekend. While we were out, the kids hung out in the room, watching TV and playing on their iPods. Mainly playing on their iPods. Oh, and the laptop. Since we had such an early dinner today, Tara & I stopped by the McDonalds for visit #3 today. This time we treated the kids (and me) to some shakes, while Tara opted for a nice sundae.

    When we returned to the hotel we found Tyler asleep in his bunk. The other kids were getting along nicely, and were quiet to boot! We woke Tyler up to give him his shake, and we all took a moment to relax while we enjoyed our ice cream treats.

    Once we finished our snack, we headed up one set of stairs to find Jeff & Becky’s room. They were almost right above, but not quite. They had a different style room, known as the Family Suite. This consisted of two queen beds and a pull out sofa, along with a split bath and the kitchenette area similar to ours. This was the room that we intended on booking originally, but there was none available when we called, and as it turns out the room we got wound up be cheaper for us in the long run (with the Family Suite we would have had to pay for two additional water park passes, pushing the cost beyond what we paid for the KidCabin). We hung out in Jeff & Becky’s room for quite a while, and were occasionally joined by another set of hockey parents, Chris & Nichole. They ducked in and out from time to time in an effort to keep an eye on their kids. We were lucky enough not to have to do so, as our kids hung out here too except for the occasional quick trip back to the room.

    Sam ended up taking Drew and Jay back to the room first, as they were beginning to tire. When midnight rolled around Tara brought up the fact that it was now my birthday – a fact that I could have let slide for the weekend! Everyone wished me a happy birthday, but by that time my newfound old age was catching up to me so we decided that we better call it a night. Drew had the first games tomorrow out of the three families in the room, so we also had to be up first.

    We headed back to our room to find Drew and Jay sound asleep. The rest of us climbed into bed as well, before finally shutting the lights off around 1:00am. A long but enjoyable day!
