This weekend was the Marine Corp birthday on Saturday and Veteran's day so I surprised Daniel and Jack by taking them to a civil war reenactment at Heritage Village downtown. As you can see Jack was not too interested, he slept the entire time. The gunshots were pretty loud and we were surprised it did not wake him. It was really cool, we spoke to one of the guys afterwards and they all travel around the country together doing this for fun. The field was not too full of soldiers as Texas is not really known for it's civil war battles. Although we did find out that there were a few small battles in East Texas. We had a picnic and then walked around the village looking in the houses and all of the artifacts. If you have not been to Heritage Village I definitely recommend going there, it is really interesting.
