Today we took the kids to a Civil War battle re-enactment. Husband and I had heard about the event on the radio and as neither one of us had ever been to one, we decided to go. It was pretty cool.
We only went for about an hour. We caught some of the last part of the re-enactment, but as the muskets and cannons were pretty loud, we didn't watch for too long. The kids seemed not to mind the noise, but we didn't want to subject them to too much of it.
Then we sat down for a snack and Georgia projectile vomited everywhere. All over herself, all over the stroller, all over my hand, and as Elise had turned in the double stroller to see what was going on, all over Elise's hand. Disgusting. But we came prepared and got everything cleaned up and went on with our day. We watched some medical re-enactment demonstrations before we left.
It was all actually more interesting than Husband or I expected. And the kids were really well behaved. I think that they were just happy to be out of the house and sitting somewhere with lots of unusual stuff to look at.
Going to the re-enactment was a nice part of our day. I don't personally understand the appeal in being a re-enactor, but I'm glad that there are people who are willing to do it.
Poor little thing. Did she have a tummyache? :(
