Call in the Calvary!

Amidst all the busyness, I forgot to post about Adam's outing to watch a Civil War reenactment back in November.  Adam's a total history buff, and he loves stuff like this like I love Pinterest.  So armed with a couple buddies, he went to the largest reenactment this side of the Mississippi.  Surprisingly, it was pretty cool and quite the deal.  He definitely plans to go to more in the future, though I'm hoping he doesn't come home one day declaring that he's joining the Union army!

The camp.  The reenactors actually stayed in these tents all weekend.

Preparing for battle.

Chris, getting in touch with his Southern roots!

And the battle begins!

Meeting the 16th president.

Casualties of war.

Watching an amputation take place.  Totally gross.

What should we do next?
