Historic St Mary's City

 After lunch we went to historic St Mary's City.  They were having some civil war reenacting done and we had a really fun time.

The kids made flags and quilt squares.

We got to talk to a lot of people who had some interesting information to share about life in colonial days. 

 The kids tried on armour and we watched a muster and heard cannons go off.

 One of their favorite parts were the colonial games.  Both E and Lu were good at the hoop and stick game.  They also played ten pins and trap ball.  H and E played trap ball with some of the "colonial children" and didn't want to leave.  They had a great time and E wondered where we could buy one of our own.

The kids really asked lots of questions and learned a lot lot lot.  It was really a lovely day and we had a fun time.
