mormon battalion

In January we took a ride down to San Diego to visit Old Towne and see the newly renovated Mormon Battalion Visitors Center (I would highly recommend this outing - lots to see and do & way fun for the kids)

Here's a quick summary of our day...

Lots of sliding down rails - we all did this (yes, even me) 





Modeling the clothes and supplies that the Mormon Battalion soldiers used.  The boys were so excited to be chosen to do this.


Panning for gold.






Actually got my boys to wash some clothes :)  Maybe I just need to install a hand pump in the backyard to get them to help more with laundry.



Got to check out the beautiful San Diego area from an observation tower at the visitors center.



 

Explored all of Old Towne.




Emily's nickname is Pie - hence the photo.



Megan has a slight obsession with boots.



Way to ruin the adorable picture of Emily.  Chalk me up another good mom point.
