In the heat of the battle. |
These 2 horses didn't seem to get along to well. :P Never the less it makes for a great photo. ;) |
Booo!!! Just kidding. I'm sure they did an awesome job. :D |
Is that creepy looking or what?!!?! lol |
It was great so see a pretty strong force of confederates. They tend to be pretty sparse.... |
Marching..... |
As they start dropping like flies. :D lol |
No matter how stressful the situation that cigar isn't movin'. |
A wounded solider.... |
I love the dramatic pose on the right. ;) |
The surrender!!!!! |
These here soliders did alittle bayonet charge toward us. Unfortunately Michelle was to scared to take a picture when they were actually pointing them at us. lol |
Some bows I want to make. So for anyone that's wonderful the main reason I have this is so I can remember what they look like. |
Many thanks to the young gentleman that kindly took a photo of all of us. |
Lauren in her new gown! |
In line for dinner. |
Chowin' down! |
Tuckered out before dancing a single step? :P |
The sky was outstanding that evening! |
Leaving to ready for the dance. |
This is only a small fraction of our things. :D |
Now we move onto sunday morning.
Eating to get energy for our morning swim. haha |
The morning workout. They couldn't figure out why they weren't burning any calories.... :S Even I am amazed by what some of us do... |
Preparing to dive in. Okay so I slowly walked into it... What ever... lol |
It was so nice to have Grandma join us in the water. :D |
On the way home we ate at Cracker Barrel...Michelle enjoyed trying some of the masks they had there... |
The south end of our table... |
Our darling Grandma. We're all very thankfully to her for making this trip happen. |
Rachel wanted to be in every picture. :D |
Our driver, Emily. You did a wonderful job with all us wild girls in the back, my dear. :) |
The darling Rachel. Or on this occasion known as Ray, since we struggle with duplicate names... |
Megan |
The ever onery Abigail. Okay...she's not that bad. ;P |
Sarah...I think this portrays her personality well. And no, I am not always that impressed by her. lol |
The photographer, Michelle. |
She owns this store and she never even new it. lol |
A quick overview of the event. The location was fantastic, far away from any modern inconveniences. There was actually quite a few reenactors(the most I've seen) which made the battle the best we'd seen. Also there seemed to be a pretty good sized crowd of spectators. It was nice to have the dance indoors. That always makes them so much nicer and it was raining while we danced so it actually made it possible in this case. :D
Sorry about the somewhat lame post. We're kind of in a hurry. :D
Love,
Brooke and Michelle
