We crammed in as much as we could on our last full day in Laporte last Friday, July 6. It was slightly overcast (but humid!) in the morning so we headed to the Loyalsock Creek in Worlds End State Park to let the kids roam around and throw rocks in (which was a huge hit!). We also stopped by the Sullivan County courthouse to check out their taxidermy collection (again, a huge hit with the kids) and then after naps, we went back to Lake Mokoma for a couple hours. After dinner at the cottage, Uncle Phil, my dad, Todd, the girls, and I walked to the Ice Cream Shanty to get ice cream.
My other workout of the trip involved my TRX (it blends in but it's hanging to the right of the slide) and the bench
William, Jeff, and Lucy checking out the creek
Todd & Cece venturing closer to the water
She laid on this rock for quite awhile dipping her hands in the water and finding small rocks
Lucy was standing up and throwing rocks in
Todd tried to teach Lucy how to skip rocks but she just wanted to chuck them in
Holding onto Cece--the current was pretty strong that day
View of the creek a little further down
With the girls
Looking at the taxidermy
Figured I should try to get in a few pictures since I'm usually the one taking pictures
Our attempt at getting all 4 cousins in a picture
Family pic on the swing
Back at the lake for round 2
Cece's attempt at yoga
It really cooled off Friday night once the sun started to set so we had to put on sweatshirts for our walk to get ice cream
Cece showing me what she wanted to get
The Ice Cream Shanty (and Uncle Phil)
Lucy enjoyed her cotton candy ice cream...
and Cece did too!
The girls were very intrigued with this payphone
We got up on Saturday morning, packed, did some laundry, and hung out with everyone before hitting the road to head back home before lunchtime. We stopped for lunch a couple hours into the drive and made it back home around dinnertime. While the girls would've loved to have stayed another day/night at the cottage, it was nice to get home on Saturday night and have the following day to unpack and recover before heading back to work on Monday.
Playing with baby Jack one more time before we left
And I read this entire book on the way home...definitely recommend it!
