On Sunday we had a quiet morning and ate a great breakfast at the hotel restaurant. Afterwards we jumped in the cars again and headed up to visit some caves outside of Bowling Green Kentucky. It was a beautiful ride. These are underground caves which they say weave underground for about 400 miles. CRAZY. There are many "turrs" to take depending on what you want to see. Our "turr" entered into a man made opening and dropped down about 250 feet. The staircase was very skinny and there were about 100 people in our "turr" group, which with low ceilings and people piled in front of you and in back of you -- it was extremely claustrophobic in there!! At one point all the BBQ food was taking its tole on one of the boys and they let a silent but deadly stinker go. In such tight confines we were all stuck struggling to breathe and then we got the giggle fits. Now as a mother that has birthed 6 children I am unable to laugh and walk at the same time without bladder problems. I was holding up the whole line trying to contain my laughter and then my kids just started pushing me from the back. Devan was at the back of our group and said he heard the people behind us mention that there must be sulphur in the cave to make it smell so bad. That bad sulphur smell kept following us for several days even when we were out of the cave!


After our interesting "turr" we enjoyed a nice Easter message and spiritual activity that BreeAnn had prepared. It was a wonderful day to be all together but we especially missed Jory. It just wasn't the same without him with us!! I'm so grateful that I get to be with these amazing people for all of eternity. I love my kids! Everyone got along so well and we had such a great time together. It was a wonderful vacation. On Monday we decided that we better try out the swimming pool before we went home. We had an afternoon flight so we enjoyed playing with Benson one last time. It was hard to say good-bye to the Butterfield's. We are counting the days until they move back home this summer! Love you all every day! Thanks for a great vacation! Where should we go next???
