First Camp Out

Ted got to go on his first overnight camp out while we were up north, with cousin Jack, Auntie Kim and Auntie Anne, Uncle Josh and Auntie Kristen, and Grammie, too. There was minimal sleeping in the toddler tent, but we had lots of fun.

First s’more! (Thanks for the pics, Auntie Kristen!)

Where? Right There.

Some day he’ll be a forest ranger.

Across The State

We had a visitor last week from Forks of Ivy. Aunt Deirdre drove near clear across the state to visit us, dodging treacherous rock slides along the way.

We went to downtown Raleigh, Trader Joe’s, and Hemlock Bluffs state park for a hike. She treated us to supper at The Remedy Diner in downtown Raleigh, which was very tasty. Lots of fun!

Fayetteville Street in Raleigh, enjoying the free wifi now offered.

Ted’s first walking-almost-the-whole-way hike, over a mile!

Leaves – the fascination is real.

Visiting the cow, goats, donkey, turkey, and more at the farm yard.

Playing music at Loblolly Park.

They had all kinds of drums and bells for Ted to play.

My favorite part of the museum was the Magic Wings Butterfly House.

Ted enjoyed the Gentle Zone of the Play to Learn part of the museum. They had a section just for kids his age to run free and play with all kinds of age appropriate toys and a little house with stairs and a slide just his size. His favorite part was a ball track on the wall, where he was figuring out gravity.
