Meramec Caverns

Here is a cute pic of Ollie sitting in a little box that we got in the mail. He wanted me to make the box bigger.

Today Aunt Erin & Uncle Kevin were watching Maggie & Samantha so we all went to Meramec Caverns. John & Paula came too!
Maggie, Ollie & Samantha waiting for the cave tour to start!







Ollie & Samantha
The tour lasted an hour and a half and the tour guide did not seem to like Ollie. Everytime he would talk to me she would stop talking and wait for him to finish before she would go on with story.






Time for lunch! The kids got their own table - this is the way to eat!




Now it's time to go for a boat ride!

































Don't be fooled! The day wasn't perfect. Ollie & Maggie had a wrestling match over a white life preserver in the middle of the boat tour.
The tour guide told us we could throw them over and they would eventually get back to the dock.













John & Paula











Panning for gold.











Time for icecream! Ollie got a "super herio" (super hero) icecream. Maggie & Samantha got cotton candy icecream. Here Ollie is telling them very adamantly that they do NOT have cotton candy they have icecream!















It was a fun day but we did have a few meltdowns.
