Crazy Luck

My favorite vacation moment, and the whole family would agree, is the year that we went on vacation to the Wildrness Resort in Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin. My husband, our three kids, and myself along with my sister-in-law, brother-in-law and their three kids decided for the first time we would all go on vaction together. It was a wonderful vacation, and this resort had tons to do! With six kids ranging in age from 5 to 14 it is a difficult task to keep everyone happy, but we did. On the last night at our resort we decided to go the the big arcade they had there, of course we did not want to go there until our last night because then it would have been the only thing the kids wanted to do. We all had a blast there, adults included! After spending hours at the arcade, and endless amounts of money, it was time to go. We got everyone together and ready to go, and realized we had two tokens left. With six kids there is really no way to make anyone happy with two tokens!! So all of the adults decided we would give the two tokens to my husband Kevin, I can't quite remember why we decided that, but we did. He went over to a game he had played a few times that night, it's the one where you roll the token down into the back of a dumptruck and if you hit it you win. All of us were standing there waiting on him to finish using these two tokens because even the kids were ready to go by now. With his crazy luck on the last token he hit the truck and won almost 4000 tickets. It was the craziest thing we had ever seen he had tickets coming out everywhere! Needless to say now we had our next delima, what was he going to get with all these tickets that all six kids could share? He ended up getting everyone of them something and then a table top pool table so everyone could play! We all had a wonderful vacation that year but I would definately say that everyone would agree that was our favorite vacation moment !
