Colonial Days

In our co-op (we get together with another family once a week and do history/science/art and missions) we just finished the Revolutionary War time. And we thought it would be fun to have a Colonial Days Celebration. We made costumes, had food and games. My dear friend Michelle organized the whole event and she did a great job!

Our group, I didn't have a costume so I took the picture.

Michelle made her costume, she also made my kids costumes.

Caleb and Andy. Andy loved his hat, he made it.

Making candles.

Playing marbles.

Flowers

Ellyn took some pictures while we were at Thanksgiving Point (It was the only way to get her to go. Andy was staying at Grandma's and she wanted to stay also, i now know that if the kids had to pick between Grandma and mom, Grandma wins every time.) I did take some shots also. It was just so beautiful, hard to believe that it snowed later that same day.
