Foxfire Museum

Yesterday we went on a field trip with our homeschool group to the Foxfire Museum in Mountain City, GA.  It was fascinating!  It's all outside with original cabins set up that you can walk through.  So much interesting information!

Oconaluftee Indian Village

The kids and I really enjoyed our field trip to Cherokee today. We went to the Oconaluftee Indian Village. I think it was kind of fitting that we ended up going on Columbus Day. Let's go learn about the culture that we messed up. Seriously though, it was really educational. Claire loved the beading and exploring the houses, Chandler loved the blow gun demonstration and animal traps and they all loved getting to be part of the "friendship dance". A picnic lunch and playing with friends just topped their day!
