Dutch Village!

This week we spent a morning learning about our Dutch heritage at "Dutch Village" in Holland! It was our first time there. I went in with pretty low expectations, but it ended up being a great morning that all the kids loved! Even with the 90 degree heat, we had a lot of fun!  The grounds are beautiful and it was a great mix of educational information combined with fun! They had several rides (that are VERY old :)), a "farm" area with all different animals to pet, and then several replicas of old fashion Netherlands. The best part was how laid back it was. Pretty much no rules :). The petting zoo was just open with many animals roaming around. McLleyton loved it! The girls were all about the flying swing and even got a lesson in dutch dancing! Of course everything is more fun when you have cousins along! It was a good day outing before we welcome our new baby! Two weeks or maybe less to go! We're getting excited!
