Another Birthday, Another Castle...

Ha ha! There seriously are castles everywhere over here! So the choice was obvious for what we should do to celebrate Trav's 32nd birthday...a visit to Stirling Castle and the William Wallace Monument. It was a cold day, but not raining, so we all bundled up and headed out. Justus was such a little trooper, as always.

Here is the William Wallace Monument (if you don't know who that is (mom) then rent Braveheart!).

It was a little bit of a hike up to the base of the monument. Justus had it easy, in my opinion, but somehow he was still pooped when we got to the top! (Well, let's face it, so was I!!)

But it all paid off when he got to walk around the base of the monument in the muddy grass all by himself. He is seriously loving being able to walk around on his own.

Then onto lunch before heading over to tour the castle.

Ah, Stirling Castle. One of the largest and most historically important castles in Scotland. We hooked up with a tour and learned more than we ever needed to know.

Justus even snuck off into the "King's Old Building" and dropped a bit of his own history into this place (in other words, he walked back into this little corner, squatted and pooped!). Gotta love this little guy! There's a birthday present for you, dad :)
