Weekend

If you asked P, he wouldn't have to think very long to tell you his favorite part of the weekend!
We went to a great festival. There were boat races, sand sculpture, and most importantly for P, Civil War and Native American re-enactors! P wowed them with his knowledge of period weapons. They had a table of 5 rifles and 2 pistols displayed, and P named 6 of the 7 correctly. He loved the artillery demonstration too, but his favorite of all was firing a replica Springfield! The re-enactor had him tear the end of the paper cartridge with his teeth- P got a little too close and got some gunpowder in his mouth!

He didn't worry about that too much though, because right after that, he got to fire the rifle!

N isn't into history much- but even he enjoyed meeting this guy:

All in all we had a nice weekend. I didn't study as much as I should have, but it was fun to spend time with the boys.
