Gettysburg Trip

So it has been almost a month since vacation but I have not added a post. Whoops. So here it is.

We drove as a family to Gettysburg, PA. On the way we stopped at an African Safari Wildlife Park. It's a drivethru safari and you can feed alpacas, buffalo, giraffes, etc. We all had a great time there! 

The kids both got animals from the safari. The stuffed kind of course!

While in Gettysburg we had a ton of fun. We had a formal tour of the battlefield and checked parts out more on our own. 
Dad, Danielle, Marty and I went on the guided tour together. Here we are at the michigan monument on the battlefield. 

The peace monument.
And I had to get a picture of the original train station where Lincoln arrived for the Gettysburg Address.

We spent a lot of time at Devils Den on the battlefield. There were a lot of photo opportunities :)

There are many times I didn't get pictures and now wish I would have. We had dinner a couple nights at a school park. The kids were able to play and everyone was able to relax and have a good time. The kids loved swinging but I think the favorite thing was bubbles!

And finally, a picture of the view on the drive home.

Thank you Papa and Grandma for another great family trip!!!
