Today we went to the Alexander Graham Bell National Historic Site in Baddeck, Nova Scotia. Alexander Graham Bell was a teacher, scientist, inventor and loving husband and father. He is known chiefly as the inventor of the telephone, but he also produced important discoveries in medicine, aeronautics, marine engineering, genetics and electrical science. He also greatly advanced the methods and practices of teaching the deaf to communicate - just incredible!
We enjoyed walking around the site and reading all about his life.
"Hello.......anyone home"???
They had so many hands on activities for the kids - it was so great and they loved making their tetra hats. The Bell grandkids wore these type of hats in the early 1900's
Aren't they snazzy??
They had wonderful puzzles and colouring for the kids - oops did I say kids???
Even Jessie and Becky had some fun with the screens!!!
Too fun! LOVE, love, love the hats! Uh, Scott, you need to try harder to stay in the lines when you color. :)

Hi Harpers! We've been enjoying keeping up with all of your adventures. Thanks for being so faithful with all of the posts! You are really getting around and doing a ton of cool stuff. :) I haven't commented much because I've been mostly reading your updates on my phone. We've been thinking of you a bunch as we've been in Disneyland the last week...sitting at the same spot we all had lunch together last year (over by Goofy's flight school!) We'll keep reading every post! Love to you all - the Knights.
