Jacomb Chronicles - Part II

The American West Heritage Center


Just down the road from us is a fun little living history farm that we decided to visit with the fam. Since it was the end of the day, there wasn't anyone there besides our little family party and the boys had the run of the place!


Horseback riding


(See... there you are Nicci!)







Old-fashioned chores











All the places to explore







The tasty finger foods




Playing in the barn










Feeding the animals










... or chasing them.



But the true hit of the day - the unfinished train track. Boys!

Jacomb Chronicles

We were very pleased to have a visit from our family recently. Ok, not recently... I am almost two months late in getting these photos ready for the blog... But I am starting to catch up on my backlog (I emphasize the STARTING).

So, these photos will be a two-part series depicting our adventures with the Jacomb family and Grandma Christine. Let's start with some introductions:



Meet Mike - age 4. Occupation: King of the World!



And Stephen - age 1. Occupation: Heartbreaker (just look at those eyes!)


And these cute boys' mamma - Nicci.

Nicci?

Where are you?

Now, I promise that these two darlings were not left on our doorstep without parental supervision - but darn it if we only took pics of the kiddos. Sorry Nicci! (Although I think I have one of you at the American West Heritage Center... a.k.a. Part 2 of the Jacomb Chronicles series.
Stay tuned!)




Tom with his cousins



Can you just see the joy? Kids to play with! Hooray!




A little lawn tumbling.


That's some good stuff!



Here are the boys preparing some Oreos for Dirt Cake.



That's some good mashing!



And some good tasting...



A little bathtime playtime.



A relaxing pre-bedtime wrestling match with the dad/uncle.











Good times for all!
