Amy had a work meeting in WV and Adam was in Belgium...so Amy took the kids with her AND her friend Kate and Kate's two kids...a mini vacation for Kate and the kids at the National Conservation Training Center! We had a great trip (and so did Adam). We hope everyone is enjoying the long weekend!!
Ayson goofing around with the polar bear on display at the registration desk.
Both boys hamming it up!
The kids had fun with some of the activities set up for the meeting :)
Walking the bridge to the classrooms
A board game in the room
More games in the lodge lounge area
There is a new game set up outside of the cafeteria and social lounge - viva sol hook and ring game. The goal is to swing a sting (attached to the ceiling) with a ring so that the ring lands on the hook on the other side of the walkway. The kids had fun attempting to land on the hook - and they all did!
Kate took the kids to
Crystal Grottoes Caverns - so cool!
VERY cool - thank, Kate!!!
Amy's class ended at noon on Thursday so she took the afternoon off and took the boys fishing on the Potomac River:)
Looking for crayfish
Ayson wading in the water.
Very neat rock formations across the river bottom.
Emmett walked out on a rock formation ledge into the river.
Ayson wanted a picture of the lodge :)
A picture from Adam of the castle from the torture museum in Gravensteen in Belgium
Sunnies look fantastic after being gone all week!
On Saturday, we stopped by Annie and Bob's garage sale and we brought lunch!
Ayson's new graphing calculator arrived (for school) and the first thing he did was hook the calculator to his computer so that he could add games to the calculator...sigh.
Our water heater is on its last life and of course the box was a HUGE hit!
Our friends came over to swim Saturday night :)
Ayson was not interested in swimming
Amazing sunset!!!
On Sunday, Adam and the kids cleaned up the potatoes. Ayson made french fries and they were very tasty!!!
Ayson mowing in the background and our fist batch of canned tomatoes for 2023!
