1st grade field trip

I was lucky enough to go on the field trip to the butterfly gardens with Talen's class. It was fun to see Talen in his element. He really loves school.

Copenhagen, Denmark

We had a long weekend in May and so we planned our last trip. Denmark has been a place we have always wanted to go. We spent 4 days walking, biking, and driving all over Denmark. The boys had a really great time! We even took the car on the ferry to Sweden, (just to squeeze in one more country).

Tivoli Gardens, a 166 year old amusement park originally built to keep the commoners happy so they wouldn't dwell on how heavily they were being taxed. It worked and it is still a major tourist draw!

We spent one day touring Copenhagen with Mike our bike guide. We had allot of fine and even rode through the cemetery/park to see the final resting place of Hans Christan Anderson.

Learning how to row in a viking ship, at the viking museum. This was a highlight for the boys.
