Heaven in Aldie --Part 2

Sometimes heaven is hard to find if you misplaced your pictures on the computer...:)  We enjoyed our visit to Aldie, VA quite a while ago now.  As luck would have it, Tiffani and Rick's spring break coincided with the conference Don was back there for.  They decided to drive the 8 hours to spend some time with family.
We played while Don and Dustin worked.  So sorry to both of you !
Here we are getting bundled up ready to go outside to play.

We carefully made our way to the playground.









The Swing

How do you like to go up in a swing,
Up in the air so blue?
Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing
Ever a child can do!

Up in the air and over the wall,
Till I can see so wide,
River and trees and cattle and all
Over the countryside--

Till I look down on the garden green,
Down on the roof so brown--
Up in the air I go flying again,
Up in the air and down! 
Robert Louis Stevenson


Conner is happy both ways--alone and with help!!

Not sure who won this jumping contest....:)

Rachel seems unconcerned.




Sam had to try a different ride.















We were supposed to fly home the next day, but the snow inhibited that event.  Because of the snow, our flight was canceled (as well as the replacement flight later on in the day) so we were able to spend an extra day with our loved ones!!
Rachel seems happy enough as they were getting ready to go home.   The snow that had fallen didn't thwart her mood. The rest of us were a little more somber.  But we all arrived home safely in spite of things.  That was the good part.  And we took with us some great memories!  Many thanks to Dustin and Nicki!
