Cobble Creek Farms

Today we went to Cobble Creek Farms (Thanks, Maria!) with Grandma Jen and there was tons of stuff to do.

We went on yet another hayride. This one was the longest one we have been on yet.

Craig and Dagny

We took silly photos with silly things.

yeap.. that’s what that is

Dagny checked out the digs.

“I just don’t know Mom, I just think its a little small.”

We picked out our pumpkins.

Where’s Dagny?

And, we checked out the locals.

ZooBoo 2009

This morning we got up and headed out to ZooBoo. This was Dagny’s first year and we can’t wait to go back in the years to come. What made it even more special is that Grandma Jen came up from Ohio to be a part of Dagny’s first ZooBoo.

Boston Or Bust

We packed our car last Friday morning and we headed out to Boston on our first family vacation. We meet my brother, sister-in-law, niece, nephew, and our friend, Eva, there.

I am not going to lie, but we were a tad bit concerned on how Dagny was going to react to the long ride, all the sightseeing, and sleeping arrangements. We were so pleasantly surprised at how wonderful she did, I think the fact that we are always taking her places she was up for the adventure. Yay, Dagny!

Saturday morning we had some breakfast and headed downtown to do the Freedom Trail. I am happy to say that we were able to do the entire trail. Thanks to Edit for taking the time to print out the history of each stop and sharing it with all of us. She was definitely our tour guide that day.

These are the markers at every stop.

Here we are in front on Ben Franklin’s monument.

Here are the other two men in my life.

Emeric and Emerson

One of the stops on the trail is Paul Revere’s house. This was probably my favorite stop on the trail. I like old, smelly houses that have tons of history.

Inside the courtyard we took some photos.

The end of the trail is Bunker hill. My brother and his clan walked up it, unfortunately with the stroller that was not an option for us. So we waited outside and made funny faces with Dagny.

Here is Dagny holding my Mom’s hand as we are walking the trail.

how cute

The following day we went to Plymouth to see the rock and then Plymouth Plantation that duplicates both the Indian and Pilgrims way of living back in the time. It was very interesting to see. What makes it really neat was that the people playing the Indians were actual descents of the Wampanoag tribe.

Here is Dagny and Craig on the Mayflower II.

After we said our good-byes to my family, Dagny, Craig, my Mom, and I went to Cape Cod.

The following day we started out at the New England Aquarium. This was set aside specifically for Dagny because of her love of fish.

When we were done we headed to Salem.

I promise, I am a good witch. It’s Hungarian goulash I am making.

My mom and I toured The House of Seven Gables. I loved it… still like old, smelly houses.

While my mom and I toured the house Craig and Dagny played on the grounds. Here is Captain Dagny.

From there we headed to Cambridge to check out Dagny’s college, Harvard.

Harvard? I am going to Yale.

We ended the night by going to Cheers. It was great going back there and this time with Dagny.

Gro-Moore Activities

Today the three of us went to Gro-Moore Farms to continue our Fall activities. There is so much to do, that honestly we didn’t do half of it. I also think that Dagny is going to enjoy this place so much more next year. There are some wonderful activities designed for older children. Even though all three of us are under the weather we still had a blast.

Enjoy the photos.

Here is Little Miss D getting into the spirit of things.

My two favorite people getting ready for the hayride.

my two favorite people

Dagny just loved the slide, she could of done this the whole time we were there. This child has no fear, because I seriously believe that this is a big slide for a 22 month old. Obviously, Dagny feels differently.

weeee

“Mom, look it’s a goat”

There was live music there. Our child (loves all music) decided to get up and start dancing in the middle of the aisle. No one minded because it was so adorable.

And, finally a couple of photos of the three of us.
