We went to the Henry Ford 'Greenfield Village' on October 21, on one of the last nice days of the year. It was so fun! This place is a blast. It's a restored village covering 90 acres that is set in early American times. We rode in a Model T car (above), got a train ride (below), went around on the carousel, walked along the streets and had lunch on a picnic table.
Here we are on the real steam locomotive train that goes around the entire village.
Little cutie.
I love how Ben looks so GQ in this picture. :)
Here are the girlfriends that I went with. We all smashed together on one row of the train. It's more fun that way. :)
Eliza is saying "HI!"' to the horses just beyond the gate. She loves animals.
Little cutie.
The next evening we went as a family to the annual
AUTUMN FAMILY PARTY for the residents/med students, held at a local farm. Hay rides, pizza party, real pigs and goats... It can't get better than that, especially with my hubby with me!
The kids got rides in these little cows, pulled by a tractor in the front. Benjamin loved it, and Eliza would have if she wasn't so bundled up. She could hardly move around, so it was hard for her to enjoy the experience whilst falling off the seat and slumping to the floor...
Luckily, she got a second chance at enjoying the ride by sitting on Daddy's lap instead of Benjamin's. :)
Benjamin thought he was the luckiest guy ever to get to ride it a second time.
Don't ask me how Jed managed to smash himself into that little cow. What a great Daddy he is!

Haha, that picture is pretty funny with Jed riding in the cow! How did he cram himself in that thing?! The things we do for kids:) Miss you guys. Hope you have a great Thanksgiving, which I'm sure you will with you being in charge of the cooking!
You do such fun things with the family even with Jed's busy schedule. You are a good mom to make things happen. Love Grandma Walker
That looks so fun! And what a sweet Daddy to ride the cow train with the kiddos!! So cute!
What a fun time! I love those little cows. And Benny looks so big and cute! Eliza is adorable in her little brown skirt and bow. And that village sounds so fun! I'm jealous I couldn't go with you. :)
