Part 1 - Indian Caverns

Part one of our trip today took place at Indian Caverns where we toured an old cave that Indians used to use. It was really cool seeing the different rock formations and learning a little about the history of the cave. We really had a really nice tour guide and really enjoyed the tour.
This formation they called the "Frozen Niagara"


Here the boys are checking out some Indian artifacts that were actually found in the cavern.
Stalactites - holds tight to the ceiling, Stalagmite - might get there someday (forms bottom to top)
This is a picture of the boys hitting the "Singing Rock" if you hit it in the upper corner it would ring like a bell it was really cool! It is considered to be good luck to hit it!
Nathan touching the "Dumbo"formation. The trunk is formed my a stalactite which are hollow. How cool is that?

When we finished the tour we had a picnic lunch and fed these crazy huge rainbow trout that were in the creek right near the cavern. It was really a good time! So that's part one! I am too tired to post part two right now so keep watching and see what we did after the Caverns :)

It's Cheesecake Day!

In Honor of National Cheesecake day, I am sharing with you my favorite kind of cheesecake!
I love Turtle Cheesecake, (Well I think I love Turtle anything!) The combination of chocolate, caramel and nuts makes me very happy! Doesn't that look amazing!! Too bad I am watching what I eat right now! Well at least trying too!


I do have one more page finished and since we are talking about baked goods its only fitting that this page is for the cookie decorating challenge.

look at my little buddy grow! He came to see me last night, but he and his momma got stuck in the rain! He was All wet! Good thing Auntie had dry clothes for him! His Momma got to raid AJ's drawers! lol

Well that's about all for today! I have to go and do some research on what we wanna do for our family day trip Saturday. Yay!!!

What kind of Name.....




You Like Names That Are Classic and Timeless



You prefer quality names that have stood the test of time.

You don't like anything that's trendy today and outdated next year.



Names are important to you, and naming someone should not be an social experiment.

You are the type most likely to name someone after a family member.



Some female names you might like: Andrea, Elizabeth, Hannah, Julia, Marie, Nicole, and Victoria



Some male names you might like: Aaron, Benjamin, Christopher, Jonathan, Matthew, Thomas, and Zachary

I would say this is pretty accurate. My sons names are Nathaniel and Allan
