7th Grade Flashback!

Texas History was a requirement for 7th graders when I was in middle school (yes, ions ago!). For some reason, I really hated it. Which is a shame because Texas has such a rich history worthy of dedicating an entire school year to studying it. We took a little Texas history field trip of our own and visited the San Jacinto monument (site of an important battle during the Texas Revolution). Luckily, the trip also included a quick ferry ride and lunch at a great litte seafood restaurant near the monument.





We need to return when the boys are old enough to sit through the movie they show telling the story of the battle. Mr. Piper would've been proud!
