Mammoth Cave!!!

On Friday, before we made our way to Burkesville, KY for my family reunion, we thought the kids would like doing a quick tour of Mammoth Cave. Boy, were we WRONG! Ha ha! Both kids woke up way too early that morning, so Callia was tired and Cohen was grumpy from the get go! It didn't help that we were on a really crowded tour and the guide kept stopping to talk about stuff that Cohen couldn't care less about! By about midway through, we knew it was not going to end well and a meltdown was imminent! Oh well, maybe we'll try again in a few years.
 
Heading down into the cave!
And the meltdown begins! Callia is tired of being held and wants to walk (which was way too dangerous with the steep drop-offs) and Cohen decides that he is done walking and refuses to walk anymore! Jeesh!
Yes, that is Sam literally dragging them out the last few feet of the cave!

Pool Fun!!!

A little time in the pool at our stop over in Cave City, KY!
Callia loves jumping in too! Just like big brother!
I'll sure be glad when Cohen can smile on command without looking like he's being held at knife point! Ha ha! :-)

Dinosaur World!!!

We headed down a day early to my family reunion this past weekend, so that we could spend a night in Cave City, KY visiting a couple of sites we thought the kids (especially Cohen) would enjoy! Our first stop was Dinosaur World, which Cohen LOVED! It was sooo nice too, since we were the ONLY ones there!
Cohen was impressed by how BIG some of the dinos were!
Cohen was looking the whole time for a T-Rex!
Digging for fossils!
A worker explaining the different kinds of fossils that Cohen found!
Uncovering dinosaur bones!
