Uncle Tom invited us to go along and enjoy theColonial Christmas with him.
We're so glad he did!!
When we arrived everyone was singing.
Hot Cider was served and we joined in with singing.
The Dining Room
We experienced the Colonial Christmas Dinner for
the twelve days of Christmas, from Dec.25th to Jan.6th. and
the different traditions they had.
Dance Lessons in the Ball Room.
Reading a petition.
The political skit that was quite hilarious.
The Storyteller from the perspective of the slaves.
Colonial Period Games.
