Battle of Gettysburg

Today was Katelyn's Civil War day at school. It was fun to go around looking at the different projects the kids worked on. Katelyn's project was Flags of the Civil War.

Afterwards they did an reenactment of The Battle of Gettysburg. Katelyn was on the South side and therefore ended up getting killed in the thick of the battle. All in all it looked like they were all having a good time.

The South retreats . . . . .
