Autumn in the Brier


Recently, our city had "Autumn in the Brier", a fundraiser for the Greenbrier Historical Society & Museum. Fifth graders from the elementary school are asked to participate in this event. Christian was selected to do it and was thrilled. He got to dress up in Civil War era clothing and do tasks from those days. It was really fun for him and our family went up to visit. Even Julianna and Rebecca got the chance to help with the tasks and had fun. Here are just a few pictures of all three kids at the event.
