This week we explored a few new places around town, which was super fun. We went to Lauritzen Gardens and climbed up the 1 million stairs to see the old Union Pacific train cars. Neither Luke nor I had ever been up there so it was fun to see them close up. They are so BIG!
Next, we headed to the Durham Museum. Another first for the whole family. It was actually really cool and I could have spent along time there. Having the kiddos in tow, that didn't happen but we did get to climb through a few old train cars, see Sue the T-Rex dinosaur, and dig for fossils in the kid zone.
The weather this weekend was out of this world. A little strange for July!?!?!, but I am trying to see the bright side of it.
We spent the evening exploring out on the ranger. We went down to the river, walked around the pond, and picked some fruit from our fruit trees. The cool weather and breeze made our adventures virtually BUG FREE!!!! - which was amazing!!!
AND it didn't stop there!
We got a little country and went to the Washington County Fair in Arlington. The kids liked seeing the animals and I enjoyed a Frito Pie and some homemade ice cream :)
Chris and the girls came and hung out with us on Sunday evening and we soaked up some more of the wonderful outdoors.
