Living History Field Trip

We had the opportunity to go with the children's school to a Living History Day for the Revolutionary War a couple weeks ago. It was hands-on, live actors, even some skits to present some history. We were only able to stay for about 3 hours because the girls had dance that afternoon. But here are some of the photos.
