Biltmore

Road Trip to the Biltmore Estate!!!



On our walk to the house

So handsome


Looking at the Blitmore








Trying to cool off in the car


Looking at the animals in the petting farm


Hesitantly petting Bert the horse


Andrew loved the goats!!!


Notice Andrew pouting??


This was just after he asked if he could bring home a chicken


Reaching for Momma


Petting the chicks




He was so proud of himself that he could climb up on the dog all by himself!


My sweet little boy!


This was just after Daddy had to scoop her up


because she panicked when the chickens walked past her.


Andrew liked the horse Chester







We had quite the adventure at the Biltmore. It was very hot and we soon realized it wasn't a very kid friendly activity. As soon as we got in the house Andrew climbed up a pedestal and tried grabbing the bust. I didn't want to yell his name bringing attention to the toddler climbing the pedestal so from that moment on he was carried or holding one of our hands.


We had a nice day together, but it was a little stressful.


We are looking forward to another trip to Charleston next weekend!!!

Sorry to hear it was a bit stressful; I guess I can understand why now! Great pics; I especially loved the depth of field you captured in the pics of you and Aaron holding the kiddos with the Biltmore in the distance...definitely frame-worthy! :)

Looks like you guys are having an awesome vacation!

I love that Andrew wanted to bring home a chicken. A boy after my own heart.
