Catching Up
Went to Ag Days at the 4H fair last weekend with Henry's friends Eamon and Owen. Got to see lots of animals, which Henry loved to look at but only hesitantly touched. The preschoolers had a blast, and the big tractors were a hit. All three boys sitting in some vehicle, I forget what it actually was:
And the weekend before, Henry and I went to Sugar Camp Days at Bendix Woods to learn about how maple syrup was made. I'm not sure how much Henry learned, but I learned a lot! It was a cold day, so we bundled up, and found lots of indoor activities to do, like this live folk music:Henry sat and watched and ate his snack for half an hour. Shocking, because if you know Henry, you know that he doesn't sit for that long. But he was enjoying the live music, and I think that this was the first time he's heard live music like that before, except at church. They sang and played guitar, and lots of homemade banjos, which was interesting. We got to explore some homemade children's games, watch candle making, tour a sugar house, and taste some delicious maple sugar kettle corn. Henry's favorite thing was the horse, which he neighed at the whole time. And raised his hand like a trunk because apparently they reminded him of an elephant!
We're looking forward to our Easter weekend, complete with dying Easter Eggs and an Easter Egg Hunt!
