The Calderwoods have enjoyed not one, but TWO Spring Breaks this year. An earlier post revealed our adventures to North Carolina for Shaun's break from school. For my Spring Break we had our North Carolina friends come to visit us. We enjoyed a day at the temple, a day in DC seeing the cherry blossoms, and a weekend in Colonial Williamsburg. We are grateful for such wonderful friends to spend time with. The Wests are wonderful as are so many of our other friends that we wish we could have also seen over this break. We look forward to more adventures and will be sure to post them right here. Here are some photos of our week in review.

Above: Shaun and Ella with their backs towards the maze behind the Governor's Palace. Shaun says the reflection from the flash off his windbreaker makes him look like he's one of the colonial guards in metal armor.
A room in the Governor's Palace said to be for one of the Governor's daughter's.

Shaun and I in the stocks. You could be placed in the stocks for not attending church. It's a good thing we do. But we could have stolen a chicken or another minor crime too to deserve this punishment.
Ella in her colonial bonnet
A colonial family... although Shaun looks more like Sir Elton John than Benjamin Franklin

Me trying to imagine having twins... lots of work!
The girls interrupted someone else's game of frisbee and ran off with the frisbee (as seen here). Luckily the other family found them so endearing that they didn't mind and even let them play a while.
