day in hillsborough

sherwin — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 13:03:02 +0000

hillsborough is a neighbouring town of chapel hill and known for its historic connections with the american revolution. first we stopped by the saturday morning farmer’s market:

right next to the market was the “Occaneechi Village”, a replica of a native american village which lived in the hillsborough area before being displaced by settlers.

took a walk through town and passed by some historic homes, mainly from the 1800′s. some had famous ex-owners, for example we passed by the home (not the one in photo) of one of the signers of the declaration of independence!

downtown.

souvenir?

the church nursery

it took four months, but she’s finally figured out that the church nursery without mom and dad is not that bad a thing! it was hard for us to know since she’s always crying when we leave (albeit getting better), but someone took pictures and now we have proof!

apparently that day she insisted on sitting in the stroller with seatbelt buckled nearly the entire time. silly child.

playground in january

rebecca is officially walking and climbing stairs, which means that a visit to the playground is now way more interesting. luckily it is also relatively warm here in nc, so we didn’t have to worry about freezing.

and she’s off!

thank you auntie gina for my strawberry hat (very cute i must say)!
