Mount Vernon

 I really love Mount Vernon, it is a great place to go visit.  Greg had never been so we went today.  It was also Family Fall Fun day!  There were a lot of people there but we didn't really run into excessive crowds. 
 Lu was anxious to show Tate all the fun things, including rolling down the hill, her favorite activity there :)
 They had apple roasting (surprisingly good), corn husk doll making, colonial dancing, Pres. Washington was there and gave a very interesting talk, they had chores to try, music to listen to (both slave and colonist), they had games and lots of historical interpreters.  The weather was perfect too so that added to the enjoyment.




 R, S and E stayed home.  They went to E's soccer game, went on a motorcycle ride, readied the house for the hurricane and then met us at Olive Garden for dinner.  Both groups called it a great day.

 It was a good day, I was with some of my favorite people at one of my favorite places!
