Williamsburg Virginia

I am so late posting this...but while my mom and aunt were here visiting we took off to Williamsburg to the Jamestown Settlement. It was very interesting to see how the survived back in the day.

The first few pictures are of the Yankee Candle Village in Williamsburg. Can I just say, I lovvved it! Christmas stores galore and I love Christmas decor. It is one huge store but when you walk in it is set up like a village on the inside. The ceiling is painted like the sky and it feels like you are walking down the street is some quaint little village. They have one Christmas store that it snows in there every 5 minutes or so and the twinkling stars on the ceiling. Oh, it was heaven. They have a place where you can have your hands waxed into a sculpture for only $5 bucks. My mom and aunt had their hands done together. It was a neat place...can't wait to take the kids.



Look at this humongous magnolia tree we found at this old church. I wonder how old this thing is.
When you come to this church your there to stay, no leaving early during service, no potty breaks....they have doors on the side of the pews.
Check out the cute little booster sits for the kids.
This is President John Tyler's plantation, he retired here after his presidency. This is the only presidential home that is still remains in the family.
I thought this tree was the coolest thing. I couldn't believe the trunk was hollow and the tree was still alive.
Another huge magnolia tree but this is located in the back yard of the plantation.
