Hidden Oaks Nature Center

On Thursday, Lucas joined his friends Carter, Ewan and Anna at Hidden Oaks Nature Center in Annandale, VA. It is a place that I had taken First Graders to when I taught. It was a rainy day so we couldn't hike on any of the trails, but we enjoyed playing indoors!

Watch out for the ssssnake!

Hello Mr. Fox!

You mean I can actually press all of these buttons Mommy??

Discovering a play cave

The effect is that of a tornado, much like Lucas in my living room :)

Frying Pan Park

On Saturday we decided to check out Frying Pan Park. We dressed Lucas for the occasion in the outfit he received from his Grandma Sewall for his birthday :) He enjoyed walking around and listening to the sounds the animals made (especially the rooster)!

Ok I think I'm ready to take this tractor for a spin Mommy!

What are those???

Oh, Sheep!

What will we see next?

A fake cow in the horse barn...of course!

That's one noisy rooster!

I see a cow over there!

I'll lead the way guys.

Come on Daddy, I'm ready to go home and take a nap!
