Wisconsin Dells: Our Cabin

Derrick had a break from school all week, so we had our FIRST family vacation (with just our little family of 4)! We drove 3 hours up to the Wisconsin Dells for a 2-night stay in a cabin. We found a good deal through a time-share sales promotion, but we did NOT buy the timeshare. Dayton and Daphne really enjoyed staying in a fun, new place.

Daphne was especially thrilled to have a big, new bed

She was singing silly songs from a Dora episode


They loved finding acorns ("nuts") outside the cabin;
the kids liked the acorns so much that we brought a bunch home

They found a few small anthills with Daddy
Their new game for the trip: Don't Spill the Beans;
They were also allowed to bring one set of toys each-
Dayton brought his legos, and Daphne brought her littlest petshop set

Derrick taught Dayton and Daphne how to make a nut magically disappear from a hand and reappear in a new location; Dayton really enjoyed practicing magic!
