Last week our learning theme was ponies.
We had a great weekend in Chincoteague, VA. It was the week they have The Pony Swim and the island was buzzing with excitement. While we were there we went to the Blueberry Festival where Haddie got a new dress and rode a pony. We also visited The Pony Center where we got a couple of toy ponies that look like my mom's horses, Otis and Bella and a shirt and saw the cutest brand new baby pony!
We usually rent a house when we go to Chincoteague but this time we stayed at a hotel. That's where I found out my little girls are water babies. They loved the pool!
