Cox Farms

We had a crazy weekend this weekend. My mom came for the weekend and Nate had Thursday and Friday off, so we made our annual trek out to Cox Farms.

Nate feeding the goats. For some reason, this was the favorite activity this year.

This was Nate's favorite slide last year. I think he only did it twice this year.

Sean HATED the slide. He started screaming right after this picture.

Hmm, can I take one of these home with me?

Sean loved the goats too.

Nate loved the big pumpkins.

Who says farmers aren't cool?

Clarendon Day

On Saturday, we decided to take the boys to Clarendon Day. We've

gone every year since Nate was a baby. Each year his willingness
(and ability) to try new things increases.

This year he decided to try a blowup obstacle course.

Sean apparently thinks he's five as well. He insisted he was going to
do it and nothing was going to stop him. Except, of course, the fact
that he couldn't actually do it...

So mommy got the chance to do the obstacle course in order to get Sean out.

"Joe Cool" after conquering the course.

Mommy enjoying her reward - a beer.

Nate's next endeavor did not go quite as well. This is as high as he went.


Meanwhile, Sean entertained himself watching the "boats".

What Nate doesn't realize is that in a year, Sean will be the winner
in these wrestling matches...

Sean's first day of preschool

Doesn't he look so happy? This was before he realized what preschool
really was...
