For Christmas, I gave Blake twelve pre-planned dates. Each month, he opens an envelope with a planned, prepaid date for the two of us. Some are home dates, some are local, and others and out of town. For his January date, we went to Old Washington to tour some of the historic buildings and businesses. Because M is so tiny and the kids had never been on this tour before, Blake thought it would be nice for all of us to go. It was a beautiful day and we had a lot of fun!
This Magnolia tree is 176 years old. It is HUGE!
The old houses and buildings are so pretty. J really enjoyed learning some of the history.
The print shop was cool. J got to be a "printer's devil" and "pull the devil's tail." He printed an advertisement with the print machine. He was pretty proud of himself.
We all dipped candles in the candle shop. This was K's favorite part!
We had lunch at William's Tavern. It was very good and the kids especially liked the earthquake cake.
I'm glad we all went on this date. It was a fun day spent together.
