Today At Old Sturbridge Village

In which our rebel girls commit the ultimate rebellion and sign the Declaration of Independence. 
The stage is ready for all who will become American citizens today. 
And the Freeman Farm is getting ready for the Charlotte's Web shows which will start later this month! 
This web is even more amazing in person! 
It wouldn;t be Independence Day at The Village without some fife and drum music. 
Our traditional "checking out the Field of Flags" picture. I have one of them like this from every year since OSV started their Field of Flags program. One year I should put them all in one blogpost! Then we can watch the girls grown before our very eyes! 
Wishing you all a Happy Independence Day today! I have to admit, I have been struggling with celebrating this holiday more this year than last. I have taken comfort in these words, and these and even these. For those who, like me, are struggling, I hope you find comfort in their words as well. xo

  1. We nearly drove over, but it was so hot we decided we didn't want to make the 2 1/2 hour drive then just turn around and head back home. We did that once with Rebels and Redcoats and it was too much. Maybe next year!! It would have been fun to have run into you though.

    1. It would have been so neat if you did, but I totally get it too! That's a lont way to go to then just have to turn around and go home! We made a quick trip of it too, since it was so hot out! Love going and am grateful we live so close but goodness that was a hot one! xo
