I love when people come to visit and we end up getting out and doing things that we've never done before. Aja had heard about this historic village (that I had NEVER heard of) that was a good place to take pictures so we went to check it out.
It was a village of historic buildings/homes that had been moved so that they were all in one area. It was a fun place to visit and I would certainly go back!
Aja in the train depot, hard at work
Max was happy to ride along in the stroller
Video - Max was so happy to be outside (it had been sort of stormy and gloomy earlier). He just kept talking and talking!
When I saw this rocking chair, I couldn't leave Max in the stroller. I love these pictures!
After the rocking chair, it was all over. The rest of the visit turned into photo ops to capture how cute Max is. Aja was an awesome Aunt and took lots of great pictures with her nice camera. Thanks Aja!

Max and his Aunt Aja
I love my Maxwell!
Serious Max
Happy Max!
Cheesy Max!

"Home sweet home" Our new home - the slave quarters. Peter wouldn't fit.
Family picture
It took quite a few shots to get a picture of Aja, Ken and Max because Max just kept looking from Aja to Ken and back. He got quite attached to them. :)
Just in case you forgot where we were, there was a sign at the train depot
Peter and his asses (insert joke here)
Don't lean too far...
My two boys - I'm a lucky girl
Aja's handy too, she can pump water!

Starting to get tired - it's been a long afternoon
He was talking up a storm!
Peter must have been wiped out from his day, he had to rest on Max. Max thought this was funny!
Kisses from dad
I love my family... You I was looking at these pictures and I think... This little boy is so loved.
ReplyDeleteAnd I start to cry because I am so grateful that he gets to grow up with a life far better than the one we did.
