On Saturday we made our way to a nearby park with a waterfall and a place called the Stumphouse Tunnel. This project was started in 1852 and was originally going to be a tunnel through a mountain for a railroad, but due to lack of funds the project was never completed. It's an interesting place to visit though and we had fun walking into the dark, cave-like tunnel using our iPhone flashlight apps to help us see.

The waterfall overlook area was gorgeous to see with all of the fall leaves.
The girls loved collecting rocks and leaves during our adventure. In fact, I just found some remnants of the leaves stuck in the washing machine that were stuffed in Harper's pockets and while hanging up Handley's jackets I discovered several big rocks. After exploring around a bit we had a picnic lunch and then headed back to the house for naps and to watch football.

Today we made a detour on our way home to stop by Gigi and Papa's house for one last birthday dinner celebration. A big thanks to everyone for helping me celebrate my birthday.

Wow, what a beautiful time to be at the lake. Happy Birthday!
Hope you had a great birthday! We went to that same place earlier this year. We will have to meet up sometime when your close by:)
Dang if Hudson just hasn't grown up on us. Goodness gracious, he went from newborn to baby in a flash. Seems like the third kids grow up faster than the first two, doesn't it?
So glad you had such a great birthday.
Glad your birthday weekend was a good one! We miss you girls (and boy)!
