Breakfast and Cannons

I've been wanting to reclaim the Sabbath for a very long time.  Today we finally started a new tradition to do just that.  Sundays are now all about family, no chores, no work.  I make a french toast bake the night before, so I don't even have to cook.  It was a yummy way to start our day.

For the family fun part of the day we decided to go to a revolutionary war reenactment at "House on the Horseshoe".  We'd ALL been wanting to go to a reenactment for a long time and we weren't disappointed.  
They had a fashion show.
Reenactors in both camps to discuss matter and materials of the times.
A cannon firing.
And of course the reenactment of the skirmish that occurred (really a personal vendetta) on the property in 1781. 

As a bonus, we picked up some neat history books, muslin bags for a loose leaf tea, and the best tasting goat cheese we've ever had.  As a double bonus we found essential oil product that actually cured Lance of a vertigo attack he had on the way.  That makes for one extremely productive Sabbath (Is that a contradiction?).
