Who knew?

A few months ago Charles started digging through his family history and found out that his 6th or 7th great grandfather fought in the Revolutionary War in South Carolina! And that some of his ancestors settled there for awhile. And there's a historical site at the battle where he died. Who knew?! So, of course being only 3.5 hrs away we had to make a trip in early September. In their visitor's center we got to watch a video about the battle and his grandfather was mentioned.

I love this pic of Vince with his head bowed in reverence for his ancestor who fought and gave his life here.

We made a weekend trip out of it and headed up to the temple in Columbia too. While Charles was with the youth doing baptisms I took the kids to the Children's Museum since we had yet to go in Columbia. It was pretty good.
