Memorial Day Weekend Activities

Every year we look forward to the Chestertown Tea Party on Memorial Day weekend and this year was no exception!

This weekend we had a friend David Pillman, who is in the Marine Corp and stationed in Virginia spend his holiday time with us.

The Kent County Band bringing up the end of the parade

As the 'Star Spangled Banner' was played, the Kent County police force raised the flag

English Country Dancing in the street was fun to watch. They were really good at it!

After the Tea Party we headed to a park where friends from church were having a wedding reception. Rebekah and Jared were married in Tennessee earlier this month and came back for a party with friends and family who couldn't make it to the wedding.

The newly weds watch one of the many volley ball games

Some volley ball players in action!

The newly joined families play mountain gospel music together

Back at home David taught some Stinnetts how to march in step -Well at least most of the time! :)

Jennifer played "Taps" while Daniel lowered the flag as the sun went down.
