Moxie Mona stopped by my town!

around the blog2 Moxie Mona stopped by my town!

Moxie Mona has been traveling all over the country this week! She stopped by our little town called Hagerstown, Maryland. Our house was just a few miles away from the Antietam Battlefield in Sharpsburg, MD…you know the Bloodiest One Day Battle in American History. I won’t bore you with all that history stuff like my hubby does to me. You can go to the website to find out more.

In March 2009, Forbes named Hagerstown #59 for Best Place for Business and Careers!

I’d like to say that Moxie Mona was treated like a queen here during her stay…but with a 2 year old in the house…that’s just not going to happen. There were some battles – Moxie Mona being thrown in a fit of anger, Moxie Mona being forced fed a powder donut or more, and the occasional being put away in a dark place that no toddler could get. But she was a true champ! She never even complained.

Here was our little adventure with Moxie Mona…

Moxie Mona and Little Monkey ready for their outing!

Moxie Mona and Little Monkey in front of the Washington County Museum of Fine Arts. I wasn’t allowed to take any photos inside the museum, but boy am I glad I went during an off time. Thanks to Little Monkey, Moxie Mona and I had to hear quite a protest against being quiet and staring at art.

City Park…one of our fave places to play at. Not only do they have walking paths and several playgrounds, but they also have the Western Maryland 202 Locomotive Display and Museum and the Hager House and Museum. Moxie Mona also helped us feed the ducks…a powdered munchkin or two…is that bad for the ducks?! They seemed to like it. I broke it up and whatever Little Monkey didn’t decide to eat (mind you he’s not a fan of the powdered donuts) went to the ducks.

And no trip to Hagerstown is complete without a visit to the Hagerstown Prime Outlets! Ooooh, how I love to shop! I tried to get a shot that showed most of the outlets, but there is no way to get all the stores in one photo! The Harry & David store is my absolute favorite with NY & Co. just opening now being a close runner up. FYI-if you live nearby a Prime Outlets…ask around to see if they have any Halloween events. We scored big last year at the outlets! icon smile Moxie Mona stopped by my town!

I know I was exhausted from all this fun. I hope Moxie Mona enjoyed her time with us!

We have sinced moved from Hagerstown, MD and I actually miss it a little, but I’m glad I could show you our cool little city that we lived in for 4 years.
