Blacksmithing (we had to check back in several times throughout the day so that David could check the smithy's progress on a new spoon for the kitchen!)
Candlemaking
Storytelling -- this one was a story about a slave girl's Christmas
My sweets in front of the Tullie Smith farmhouse -- a mid-19th century farmhouse
...and in front of the Swan House, home to one of Atlanta's wealthiest families in the 1920s/30s. Here we got to see the mansion dressed up with a huge Christmas tree in its magnificent foyer, as well as enjoy a couple of stories. We even got a surprise tour of an area of the house not open to the public! It was really neat.
Another great field trip at AHC!

I love all of the historical places you visit. I'm sure it was beautiful all dressed up for Christmas!
