This is the Place Heritage Park...a Vriens cousin reunion!

We visited This is the Place Park on July 15th with all the cousins-Holly and crew were visiting from Kentucky. Harrison and Benson were inseperable-one of the pioneer volunteers actually told Harrison he deserved brother of the year award for how great he was being to Benny...she couldn't believe he was his cousin! I may have spotted him a fiver at the end of the day for being so great with him. We did it all, washed clothes, sat in tee-pee's, made arrowhead necklaces, rode a big and a little train (as Benson aptly described it), fed the ducks (although Benny decided he needed the bread more than the ducks did!) and had a great time with everyone! A big thanks to Pappa and Grandma for such a fun time!



Benson and Ford-o

Silly faces on the train...this is where
Benson's idolization of Harrison began :)


The school house


Benson put himself into a self-induced time-out!


Benson's 1st pony ride! The first 15 seconds...pure bliss,
the rest of the ride...pure fear. But he held on till the end!


Nothing like ice cream on a hot summer day

Pappa and the gang


Lauren and me on the train :)


Harrison and Benny-the inseperable duo!

Adelaide and Lauren...drained and dazed at the end of a long day!
