We just finished out unit on the Civil War. We are blessed to live near many places that we can go to have a hands on learning experience regarding the Civil War. The first place we went was Pamplin Park, a Civil War museum in Virginia.

We went with our Tapestry of Grace Homeschool Group and the boys absolutely loved it! Here are some of our favorite pictures from the trip!

Union soldiers!

boy + gun = fun

Drummer boy!

A confederate!

Since Big C's dad lives in VA, we combined our field trip with a family visit! Love when that happens! He took us to Hollywood cemetary. We have never been to a cemetary before. I wasn't sure what the boys would thing, but they loved it!

Sitting in from of J.E.B Stuart's grave, a Confederate general.

The marker for Jefferson Davis, president of the Confederacy! They searched long and hard for that one!
