Colonial Williamsburg @ Christmas

We found a great deal on annual passes to Colonial Williamsburg right after Thanksgiving. So part of Grammie and Pey's gift to our family was this annual pass;) So awesome since it's a great place to explore and it fits our history time period this year:)

So on Christmas Eve...

we ventured out to Colonial Williamsburg:)

On the Shuttle

Drum and Fife Corps

Fresh and charming Colonial Williamsburg Christmas decor

Tree climbing... this tree has been climbed for generations!

Lydia in the stocks

Daddy had fun too;)

It was a super trip and there was very small crowd, so we got to see a lot in a short time, including the tour of the Governor's Mansion.

We loved visiting Williamsburg and look forward to visiting it many times this year & in  warmer seasons;)

Thanks to Grammie and Pey for this awesome gift and hoping they can join us in more Williamsburg adventures;)

Just for fun, on the way home we asked the kids what their favorite part of Williamsburg was...
Anna: The ride on the Shuttle.
Chris: The man banging on the red, hot metal.
Lydia: The horse poop in the middle of the road!

LOL!! Thankfully it's a season pass;) And the can get more out of it next time!
