Sad, but true...
Keagan's favorite part of
Gettysburg...

the out house that had the talking "dummy" in it. He said things like, excuse me
someones in here, this is only a 1 hole -er.. He opened and shut the door several times to show us all and laughed every time! BOYS! :) Melissa wasn't too thrilled with it, which made it funnier, I know I'm a mean mom, but I had to tease her and tell her, well maybe this will be the Christmas card pic...

We took the tour bus - on the upper deck and listened to head phones about the battle, I realized how little I know, I think I need to do some homework on my
American history!

The
cemetery in
Gettysburg, I think the total was around 30,000 that died in the battle at
Gettysburg!

There were several different monuments there, this one is the only one dedicated to the north and the south.

Ray's mom- Grandma Jackie and the kids getting ready to ride the bus.

We had a great time learning and seeing
Gettysburg, next time when we come we are going to drive it ourselves so we can get out and see everything we want. We had the perfect weather! It was in the mid 70s, like home in WA! Not even an hour after we left it
down poured.. how lucky are we!
