While we were down in Detroit we had a chance to visit with the Crofts. They introduced The church to Bobby and have been very important in his life (mine too, since they played a large part in his becoming a member, thus allowing us to meet :o) ). Plus they are just FABULOUS people we are lucky to know. We had a chance to get together with them and go to Greenfield Village. Brother Crofts gets to work there and so he gets free passes.
So what is Greenfield Village you ask? Well it is fun place rich with history. The workers dress according to the times and there are houses, shops, and buildings of famous people such as the Wright Brothers, Henry Ford, Thomas Edison and many others. A few of the fun things we got to do was a ride a train, ride a 100 year old carousel, and ride in a model T. Liam was in heaven with the trains as you will see in the video below. Kailey, well, she had the biggest meltdown of her life but she survived the day. Maddy was probably the most well behaved (lets hope that continues!) All in all it was a fun day!
How do they stay up on that thing?
The Wright Brothers first airplane
A Freight train that you could go in...this thing was HUGE! I feel like a dummy that I didn't get any pictures with the Crofts but if you look at the tiny people to the left of the train that is the Crofts with Kailey sleeping in the stroller in front of them.
Liam and I on the Carousel.
The train that Liam FREAKED out over because we got to ride on it.

Looks like such a fun place to visit! We are glad the Croft's introduced Bobby to the church too, or else we wouldn't know you guys either:)
