Labor Day fun

It is only Sunday night and we've already had a packed Labor Day weekend. We brought the boys to Belkin Lookout Farm yesterday to run around the orchards and play in their extensive children's area. The weather was gorgeous. But what really made the day was that you get to ride a train throughout the orchard, to get to the different areas. The boys were convinced they were riding on Thomas the Train (or Tommy Train, as they call him) and LOVED every minute of it. We even met another family with triplets - sitting just 2 rows behind us on the train. We will definitely head back there when Nanna and Poppa visit next week! After (a nice long) nap, we wanted to continue to take advantage of the weather, so we walked the boys to a local park and let them run around and play for nearly 2 hours.

Today we headed to church in the morning. When the boys woke from their nap, we jumped in the car and drove up to hang out with our dear friends Adam, Jen, and their girls Piper and Ronnie Bash. Here are some pics that Adam caught:
I was holding Ronnie Bash in my lap and Win & Wes insisted on joining us.

The kids table

The boys are obsessed with guitars. Thankfully, Adam is a musician and had 3 guitars (2 real and 1 toy) for the boys to play with. Charlie chose to play his on his head. It's amazing how the real guitars were a much bigger hit than the toy - kids are smart! I'm off to search for inexpensive, used guitars for them to beat up on...
