War Eagle Cavern

Last week when my parents were up we went to the War Eagle Cave.  Josiah was so excited that he couldn't even stand still. 

Elaina was not excited to go at all.  Even going with mamaw and papaw didn't help the situation very much. 

Emmett slept through most of it.  He did wake up and cry a minute when they turned the lights out.  The he was fine through the rest of it.  He enjoyed the part outside of the cave best. 

After the cave we went to the dock to feed the fish and then the kids found the sandbox where you dug for fossils.  Emmett liked feeding the fish and Elaina had a little fun at the sandbox.  Josiah was whiny and didn't really follow instructions so we didn't go through the maze.  He had a little bit of a melt down as we were leaving till he got distracted by the swing set on the way out. 

Elaina always tell he no when we asked her if she had fun somewhere.  This is one of the few times I might actually believe her.  She HATED the cave and then she peed her pants while we were feeding the fish.  (She went to the bathroom before we went into the cave, but apparently she thinks that you can't pee when you poop.)  She said she had to go pee and before I could look around and figure out where we could take her she peed.  Since her pants were soaked Trey thought it was a good idea to dunk her bottom in the lake to rinse the pee off.  Yeah that went well.  As soon as Trey held her over the water she started screaming; I don't think that she knew what was going on.  Then walking back up for the dock she fell and skinned her knee.  She did have a little fun in the sand; she sat there and played while Trey and Josiah explored around a little more. 

She was so tired and pitiful when we left, but I guess after HATING the cave, peeing her pants, getting dunked in the lake, and skinning her knee she hard earned that right.
