Last Monday, the boys were out of school in honor of Columbus Day, so we took advantage of the day off to go to Old Sturbridge Village in Massachusetts. From the OSV website: "Old Sturbridge Village is a “must-see” destination to experience early New England life from 1790-1840. One of the country’s largest living history museums, OSV has historians in costume, 59 historic buildings on 200 acres, three water-powered mills and two covered bridges. Visitors can ride in a stagecoach, view antiques, heirloom gardens, meet the farm animals, and take part in hands-on crafts year-round." We have enjoyed visiting OSV many times since we moved to Connecticut, but I think this was our first experience visiting in the fall, and it was so much fun! The boys love to see the artisans at work, visit the farm animals, and explore all the historic buildings. There were treats to eat, paths to wander, and we even took a little boat ride down the river to get a new perspective on the Village. It was a really great day, full of fun, togetherness, and new experiences. Here are a few of my favorite photos from the day:
