Standing Up For Something


On Tax Day, April 15, I took the kids to the Tax Day Tea Party here in town. It began at the Admin building downtown and paraded through the downtown area to Union Point Park. However, because of Skylar's annoying dance photo session, we missed the parade. We made it for the rally at the park, though. There were hundreds of people there, despite the blustery and chilly weather.
We had made signs at home and even Lucy sported hers. The boys quickly ditched their signs in favor of playing on the swings, but we girls stood our ground.


She's pretty intimidating, isn't she?

I think it was a really good opportunity to educate the children about American history and American history-in-the-making. We saw a good number of other kids there. The cutest was a set of little boys dressed in colonial garb.
