County Farm Park

This is a very fun park.  It's not close to our house at all, so we don't get to it often.  But, we were headed to one of our favorite grocery stores, so we stopped here first.  We found out it's a very busy park for Wednesday morning. 





Secord Lake 2013

Each year we go up to Secord lake with around 50 of my family members for a long weekend. It's nice to have lots of time to catch up with everyone. We had great weather and the boys really enjoyed the water this year.

Greenfield Village

We went to Greenfield Village on 8th for Macy's 2nd Mondays event.  It is especially geared toward preschool kids, but there was not as much as I hoped.  Either way the boys enjoyed themselves and they asked a million questions to all those that worked there.  The poor roundhouse guy fielded questions for a good 15 minutes.  I think he enjoyed it though, curious kids are always amusing.

Senior Pictures

Veronica is a smart girl. She choose to keep the money and have me take the pictures. She joined us on a trip to Greenfield Village and I spent a few minutes snapping some pictures. Not bad for free pictures...








Spicers Orchard

We went to Spicers Orchard to pick cheeries. I have no idea why we haven't gone there sooner. The kids had so much fun picking fruit, having a picnic, picking treats from their bakery, visiting the animals and playing on all their fun toys. The weather was a little warm, but look at those clouds! As you can see I had a lot of fun taking pictures!








This goat thing was hilarious. 
Waiting for food at the top.  You have to use the pulley to raise and lower the bowl for him.
Kris went out to the car to get some coins.  Just had to give this a try.





Luke wanted to take a picture of me.  Still working on holding the camera still.





They had this cherry pitter, that pitted all your cherries for you before you left.  awesome! We froze our and use them in yogurt and smoothies.
