Northern Adventures....Final Day

On our last day of our trip, we went to Historic Mill Creek/ Discovery Park. The girls signed up for the adventure tour, and got to climb a rock wall. Serena got the "easy" side, while Natalie took the challenging side. As they passed the big red buttons, they could press them for a loud bird call. At the top was the eagle button. Guess who got to press it?

Climb, Serena, Climb!

Nope. Although Nat put in her very best effort, Serena got to the top of the wall and pressed that button proudly! She came back down with a huge smile that said, "I can't believe I did it!" We could. Both girls are good at taking on challenges and not giving up! (most of the time)

There's Serena, zip lining down from a very high spot. They walked across a very narrow suspension bridge that gave me the willies! Then zoom....down they flew. Serena couldn't turn to see me, so all the pictures are of the back of her. Oh well!

Natalie didn't think she wanted to do this, but her nature guide encouraged her by hooking her up and telling her to have a good ride! Sometimes that's the only way to get my stubborn girl to do anything new! She did it and had a great time.

Here we are at the Colonial Fort. These guys were a hoot! They packed that cannon so full of stuff I can't believe any of us could hear after this thing fired. They made lots of jokes and made all of us laugh.

These girls are growing like the greens on that tree...too fast, and getting harder and harder to "trim". However, they are far from wild and untamed so far! They just get nicer (so far) and funnier and more and more interesting as they mature. I saw a lot of beautiful views while on vacation, but the one above is still my favorite one..seeing my girls happy and mugging for every shot!!
