Aaaaaaah!!!!! I LOVE THIS!!!! Wow, what an incredible place. Caroline and Johanna look so period accurate! These photos are awesome! Love, love, love!!
Hold up. Did you MAKE their colonial costumes??
I did make them. I committed a few days last week in the rush of packing and getting over sicknesses to making them.
oh! the photos are gorgeous nicole! looks like a dream! how wonderful!! i can’t wait to see the rest! p.s. my mother-in-law just happened to have some wool yarn on hand and i made my dryer balls this weekend! so excited! i wondered if i could feature your dryer balls post on my blog and provide a french translation for my francophone readers? let me know… xox maria
That would be a great post to translate into French. It is something that everyone could use! Thanks for passing it along.
WooooWWWW – that is the cutest thing. Your girls look adorable – did you seriously make these dresses? So inspiring – it’s great to see that a lot of trends now revolve around this period.
Can’t wait to see more.

Watching my girls over the weekend make me so badly wish that we always dressed this way and carried ourselves so femininely.
Breathtaking. I can’t believe you made those dresses!!
Sounds like you’re all having a great time. I can’t wait to see more pictures. And I love the dresses!
Awesome
You know that we had been to Williamsburg many times while Brian was a student.
I thought about making a bonnet for Ayumi, but I never did.
You went further and made these dresses!
Two of them!
Amazing!!
what great photos- so cute.
WOWNicole did you really make those dresses… You are very talented I hope you will post a tutorial on the dresses. I bet the girls liked it very much… They look so beautiful… you have done a great job with your pictures…. BEAUTIFUL… I love what you have done with your kids I am sure they must have learned a lot. I would love to know what those pretty bottles on the shelves…
Can’t wait get all the details…
[...] you missed Colonial Days: Part I, see more photos of our trip [...]
Nicole, you did a wonderful job on the dresses, and they added so very much to your trip. What a treat for you to share with us. Love the time you invest in this blog.
Gorgeous Dresses!! What an amazing experience for the girls and your family!
We are planning a trip to Gettysburg in a few years for their big big big reinactment that they only do every 25 years. I should make them Civil War clothes for it, they’d love it!!
Seems like a wonderful family vacation!! I’m so impressed!
Family vacations where the mother and father get to plan it with just their little family in mind is so precious! I look forward to having one ourselves hopefully soon!
[...] 2. The Sleepytime Gal – I wish I could remember how I came upon some of these blogs; all I know is something draws me in and I’m hooked. I think what first attracted me to The Sleepytime Gal was the post I discovered about her kids’ room, including her montessori-style baskets and library nook. Seeing the beutiful Persimmon & Pink prints displayed in the room inspired me to purchase them for my own kiddos. Each time she posts something speaks to me or inspires – like a homemade cleaning station (yup, pinned it) and homemade laundry detergent, which is similar to the recipe I use. It’s also been fun watching joining her as she and daughters learn all about the Colonial days. [...]
