We are still loving Virginia. This last week was a bit hot but it cooled down enough that we were able to enjoy the weekend.
Yesterday we went with Trevor, Luc and Addy to the Moore Colonial Farm, an 18th century farm right next to the CIA. It was very beautiful and Brigham and Luc had a great time seeing how farmers lived in the 18th century. Brigham was very concerned when a chicken walked in and “made a mess” on the floor of the farm house.

We also picked up some preserves from the gift shop that were quite amazing. I think that we will be returning as soon as we run out.

I also went running yesterday along the W & OD trail. It is basically a bike path that goes over where the old train tracks used to be for the Washington and Old Dominion rail line. I went about four miles towards DC and it was beautiful. We are going to have to get some bikes setup so that we can take the whole family along there.

Brigham and Jacob are having a great time in the house. Jacob has a computer setup and thus is in heaven. Brigham is finding new uses for the house all of the time. He loves to go play in the side yard. This week he started “zipping” (basically repelling) from the banisters in the basement. He was also very excited when we set the tent up in the basement on Friday night and he got to sleep in it. Caleb just keeps rolling all over the place and always seems to be happy.

We are getting closer to being out of boxes. We are still trying to figure out where everything goes. I am sure we will get there soon.
