Historical Recreation

My dad is a huge history buff, so the fam and I took a trip out to a little town that was putting on a recreation. It took place at an old fort that is still there from the seventeen hundreds. It was amazing to learn about how the U.S. fought for their freedom from Britain. It was great for the kids to start to learn a little bit about our history. Almost everyone was wearing clothes from that time period and selling things they had made themselves. However, i think everyone will agree that the food might have been the best part! It was sooo hot, in the low 90's with high humidity, so we spent a lot of time in the shade, eating and drinking ice cold lemonade...yummy! Gracie got to try on a hat they wore then, and see how 8 people had to share ONE bed, she was amazed! Watching the men march through the crowd Charlie loved the corn on the cob Pappa and Charlie (guess who was getting a little tired?) Nanna and Gracie
