Visit to the Reagan Museum

After nine years of living in Ventura county, we finally made it to the Reagan Museum!  We went with a group of our homeschool friends and had a great time!  While I need to go back so I can actually read the plaques and examine things a bit more, it was interesting, informative, and interactive!  Faith looks like a natural giving an inaugural address!  Naturally she now wants to become the president when she grows up!

Shane too had to practice giving his speech!
 
This is Faith reading lines to act in a scene with President Reagan!  She was the first brave one of our group to do this fun activity.  After she went of course all the other kids wanted to try it too!
 
Seeing Air Force One was a highlight!  We were able to walk through the plane, but were not allowed to take any pictures.  There was also a Marine One helicopter to tour. 
 
The kids all enjoyed the "Reaganomics" games in which they could invest money and learn how investing over time is rewarding!
 
What's a visit to the museum without a horse ride with Mr. President himself?!?  If you have not been to this beautiful museum and you have the opportunity, I highly suggest that you go!  I look forward to going back again soon!
