Charlottesville Weekend

This weekend we did a quick trip to Charlottesville to go apple picking.  After we drove up we went to the Virginia Discover Museum, a children’s museum downtown.  We then walked their open air pedestrian downtown area and had dinner at an outdoor cafe. After we stumbled upon a free music festival that Brooke had a lot of fun dancing at.  The next day we picked apples, enjoyed a hayride, and did a little light hiking before having lunch and driving home.

Gifts from Down Under

Uncle Eddy sent us some very cool gifts from Australia.  The kids love their dinosaur backpacks and their many animal toys!  Thank you Uncle Eddy!!

NAS Oceana Air Show

Today I took the kids to the NAS Oceana Air show.  We had a great time looking at and getting into different airplanes and helicopters.  We got to see some performances too (several were canceled due to the weather): stunt planes, Hornet, F16, and a heritage flight.
