heritage

My eldest sis and her two kids flew in last night from London. We absolutely are so excited to have them here and for a whole month to boot! The kids especially are excited to have their cousins here and across the street to play with all the time.

We spent this morning out at the heritage/living history center. Our first stop was to visit the mountain man tent. Would you believe this is the first thing he handed our kids?

Um...lets think about this one: four kids running around with tomahawks and trying to chop everything in sight. It was the most memorable part of the day for them!


The mountain man then decided to teach them another dangerous practice that we all want our kids to learn young: how to start a fire. Perfect.


They were all very engaged. They also loved trying on the hat made out of beaver pelt.




We then moved on to the more dull parts of the history museum like riding the train and horses:


Oh. And don't forget petting the pigme goats. That is SUPER boring and dull compared to holding a tomahawk:

It was an eventful morning and one I'm sure the kids won't forget. It was great to just all be together and out enjoying the beautiful day.
