And naturally that means I am now the mother of a teenager. So far, it's been a breeze. Feel free to ask me again in about 6 years when I have 5 of them!
We were able to get out and enjoy the beautiful day together on Saturday. We had somewhere we needed to be in the early afternoon, so we didn't wander too far from home. We first went over to the University to walk on the dike. It's a very nice walk (or run if you're a kid or have the energy of one). The University is on one side and the lake to the other.
When we arrived there was a rowing competition, but it was finished before we were, so we went over and the kids sat in the stands.
We loaded up and drove over to the Old Stone Church. We play every week at the Old Stone Church playground, but the church is across the street and separated by a cemetary. I don't know if the kids really knew the church was even there. I mentioned it to Tina one afternoon and she wanted to go see it up close. So it was her suggestion which led us there on Saturday.
We looked inside then walked around the cemetary. The church was built in 1797 and so there are some very old gravestones. It is an interesting piece of local history.
