We had a weekend get away to Grizzly Jacks. The girls love to swim there. On Saturday morning, we went for a hike at Starved Rock park.
We went to see one of the waterfalls in a canyon.
Exploring nature-OK, wondering why mom says to look at the tree while she takes a picture. Mom thought the roots were neat.
Come on Mom, you are going too slow!
The canyon gets deeper and deeper as you go.
My little hikers- ready for any challenge.
Little girls- big rocks.This was our first hike. They were very interested in the animal poop we found. We also found a snail that Leeza really wanted to take home.
After our hike, we went and visited Aunt Shirley and Uncle Kenny and Uncle Ernie. Then back to more swimming and then to the amusement park. Here is Sasha on a slide
Now it is Leeza's turn. They got rid of a few rides and put in the big slide and a bounce house.
We like the little tiger ride. Nice and fun.
They wanted to go on the Tilt a whirl. the last time I got on this, it was not good. So they went by themselves. All smiles when they got on. Not so many smiles when they got off.
Sasha would not pose with the big monster that greets you when you walk in, but Leeza did.
Then it was off to bed after a very long day. They ended up sleeping on top of each other. They always cuddle close when they are in the same bed.
Aren't we cute?
Grizzly Jacks is always a fun time for the girls. I like that it is not that far away so don't have too long a drive. We will be back.
