can i just say that i LOVE the darkness of hotel rooms? i loved getting to sleep all the way until 8:15 with no light whatsoever coming into our room. the girls thought it was so fun to get to go downstairs and eat breakfast in their pajamas. kaitlyn was especially in awe of the continental breakfast. she's experienced these before, but just seemed overly impressed with things like, "WHERE did you get that BUTTER?!", or "they have MUFFINS?!" guess i need to get the girls out of the house more often.
after a yummy breakfast we were back at the pool again. sunday mornings are the best time to swim at hotel. we had it completely to ourselves.
we got cleaned up, made a quick sonic run and were on our way to the caverns. i don't think the girls were quite prepared for how big these caves were! we decided to walk all the way down (800 feet) to the bottom instead of taking the elevator down. the girls did great, and it was so fun to get to experience that with them. i have been to the caverns before, but did not remember how amazing it all is. seeing it through their little eyes really helped me to appreciate that.
we stopped at the gift shop for some souvenirs and then hit the road. claire was asleep before we even got out of the park!
claire wasn't too interested in having her picture taken...but these 2 cuties were!
blurry background...oh well.
800 feet straight downhill wears you out!

she picked out a helmet light for her souvenir and had to test it out
quick, but fun trip!
I'm glad I found you!!!!
