Mammoth Caves KY

We made the 2 day trip to KY to visit the Mammoth Caves last week with Matt's friends from high school and it was an amazing vacation!! Our cabin was darling and the kids were in awe of the caves! Gwyneth said this is awesome mom!!!

Then we visited another cave that just opened in 2006, cub run.  Breathe taking!! It felt like we were on a different planet!

The Lorax!

Things I learned about driving in the mountains:

1. There are not enough rest stops for a "potty trained" Bennett, outfit 1

2.  Curvy roads and hills make Bennett car sick, outfit 2

All that in the 1st 4 hours!!! I got kids dramimine for day 2 and back and no more issues!!!!  Thank goodness our cabin had a washer & dryer!!

Fun with inspiring books

I've been helping a friend out by watching her girls because her nanny went back to school so I have been doing fun crafts relating to books.  What a blast!! 

We have done a Mo Willems piggie & elephant, there is a bird on your head by making a bird nest hair clip.

Today we did Rosie Revere Engineer and Iggy Peck Architect.

Marshmallow poppers out of "garbage"

Buildings out of toothpicks and marshmallows. 

Gwyneth took it further with grapes by building a church!

She is still building with mag formers and other such things!!
