Indiana welcomed us with fall-like temperatures and it was amazing! While everyone was at work, Caleb, Amelia and I headed to Pioneer Park for a little hike and then pool time.
We threw rocks in the creek.
And even splashed around in it for a bit.
They were over hiking pretty quickly, because the pool was calling their names. What we didn't know, was that it has been a pretty mild summer and the water was freezing!! They ended up playing only for a little bit, then kept asking me to wrap them up in their towels. Caleb even asked if we could go get some hot chocolate!
We were able to go fishing with Papaw and Popo one morning.
Amelia found a frog, in which she immediately scooped him up.
This kid cracks me up!
Despite the heat on this morning, it was a beautiful day!
They climbed trees every chance they got….which resulted in Amelia scraping up her leg, chin and nose.
We played at the splash pad, which wasn't as cold at the pool.
We visited my grandma.
They played with this awesome water slide at their cousins' house.
I even got to meet some high school friends out for dinner.
Mamaw took us to the zoo.
Missing our "favorite" home:o)
They said the dolphin show was their favorite.
Although, walking through all of these birds was pretty cool too.
Next, it was off to the Indiana State Fair with Grannie.
Getting instruction on how to shoot the pellet gun at the Boy Scout Camp. This guy was pretty interesting.
Making fire.
They got to ride a pony.
We saw lots of animals. Caleb said, this place is bigger than the zoo.
Petting the goats.
Once we got outside, they wanted to feed the goats too, so we bought a bag of carrots.
We were able to see Great Uncle Ronnie in the chicken barn and he even got one out for them to hold….or attempt to hold.
They rode a couple of rides.
We watched a little bit of the donkey/mule show and another horse show.
Watching the goat show.
They really liked all of the baby pigs.
Before heading home, we had to stop by the Boy Scout Camp one last time to try shooting and making fire again.
We had a cookout at cousin Delaney's house and swam in the, again, freezing, water.
Silly cousins!
