While we were visiting Jeremy's family over Spring Break we decided to get out of Spruce Pine for the day and see what we could find. First we went to Linville Caverns. It was a very hot day so we welcomed the temperature change in the caverns. We seen bats, fossils, all kinds of interesting shapes in the cave wall.
This is what the kids called a chicken nugget bat!
Dalton and McKinley
A sand dollar fossil.
The blind fish in the underwater stream.
Our entire family!
Next we decided to go fishing at the bottom of Linville falls, which I thought was a great idea.

McKinley with the only fish of the day!
Bella and Shane setting the worms free! LOL
I thought it would be a nice break after walking the caverns, but in the true adventurer spirit we decided to hike the falls with all five kids, and me in flip flops!!
I was very surprised by the kids, and how well they did! We took very little breaks and they kept the whining to a minimum. Once at the top we got to enjoy some beautiful views of the falls and it sounds amazing. I could have fallen asleep so easily!
All of my boys!
Jeremy and Bella
So after a nice break at the falls it was time to come down, and Jeremy ended up carrying Bella, and I had Noah.
Not as easy as it looks!!
By the time we got to the bottom I was very excited about the drive back so we could all take a nice nap!!! Even though it was a very busy day, it was the best day!! I love having all five of my babies together!!!!
