Busy Weekend

We're trying to do all the things around here we should have been doing for the past few years. It makes our weekends full of fun and new experiences, which, of course, means pictures.

Saturday we went to the Lockport Cave. It's a manmade cave by the canal in Lockport, created to use the water to power factories in the 1860s. It was a fascinating outing, and the kids enjoyed it even more than we did!
The old locks:

The only picture I got in the cave; we kept getting "cave kisses," i.e. drops of water on us, and didn't want to risk anything! 

Then over to the little museum to learn a little more (Jasmine requested that we stop there!)


Sunday was to a Fairy Day at one of the parks nearby. Hudson slept through most of it, but the girls loved it!

We saw Mother Goose telling the story of Goldilocks:

Even before she had finished asking for a volunteer to play Goldilocks. my little Goldy had her hand up. She was quite the ham!!
They wrote wishes on butterflies and hung them in the tree, made wands and masks, and got their faces painted.

It was a lot of fun, and the kids requested that we go back. I had to break it to them that we won't be here for it next year, but that we'll find other things that we enjoy in Orlando!!
