The Endless Mountains!

  As per our "no actual vacation this summer because we spent all of our money on a new driveway", we headed to the Endless Mountains to spend several days with my dad.  Never fear!  The twins are having way more fun doing cheap/free things than we would ever have had at a beach for a week!  Here we go!

 Mike and my 7th wedding anniversary was on July 8th.  Out friend, Lynn Welles, took the twins for a few hours so we could try out a new hobby....GEOCACHING!  We are not very good.  It took us 5 tries but we finally found one!

Beautiful view!

Next, we headed off to Reptiland in Allenwood, PA!

   We, as a family, have decided we will never get a dog.  However, a turtle is a definite possibility!!

Cam says, "I think he likes us.  Can we take him home?"

Butterflies!

 We visited Reptiland last year and Cameron had petted an alligator.  Allie wasn't too into it last year...but this year, she did it!!

I thought this guy was pretty cool.

Out of everything at the park, the twinjas liked the alligator shaped benches the best.  They played on this one for about 5 minutes!

No thank you!

This guy freaked the rest of us out..not Allie!  "I like him!"

Yet another alligator shaped bench.  You can tell from their faces that they wanted to be running and jumping off of it...not taking a picture with their mother!

Cameron DID NOT like this guy....can you blame him?

Allie says, "Emu's are stinky!"

Obsessed with more animal shaped furniture...

  We were nervous we were going to get some bad thunderstorms one night while up there.  Instead, we had the chance to drive around in the gator and get some stunning pictures!  I know there's a ton but they were all just so pretty!

Can you see why it's called the Endless Mountains?

Grandpa Carr's pond...

...and barn.

"Another picture, Mommy???  We don't have time for this!"

We had visited with Grandma and Grandpa Carr and they told the twins they could pick out one toy to take with them....Allie selected this phone and then continued to carry it with her everywhere!

  The highlight of our week at Bah-Bah's house was the pool.  However, we were entirely too busy having fun in the pool to get any pictures.  We will be back up in August and hope to get some pictures of the twinjas enjoying their grandmother's pool!
