Gettysburg Get-Away

Matt and I went to Gettysburg last weekend to celebrate being married for almost 6 months! We had such a good time! Matt has been at the fire academy for the last two weeks in Emmitsburg, Maryland getting his certification in Arsen investigation. So I drove down and picked him up on Friday and we stayed at a hotel in Frederick, Maryland and then drove to Gettysburg both Saturday and Sunday. We went to the National Apple Festival on Saturday in Gettysburg and it was a lot of fun! I ate apple pie, drank apple cider and got a cute fall decoration for outside! We also went to a winery and did some complimentary tasting...yummy! That night we decided to do our first halloween scare and go to the Ghost Tour and it freaked us out!! Matt got us the mature tour at 11p.m. and they took us on a battlefield, into the woods which looked up the hill to a cemetary where we were told ghost stories. Ohhh but that wasn't the end...then they took us into the cellar and told us more stories...!! I told Matt that if I saw anything weird...that my head would go inside my sweatshirt...I'm such a scaredy cat on these types of things. It was really cool! We are glad that we did it even though I wanted to run to the car a couple of times...lol! On Sunday, we went to a pumpkin patch but once we got there...it was really for kids so we'll definitely bring our kids there one day. We left and decided to go and see Uncle Hank and Aunt Jan (Matt's aunt and uncle and mine now too!) They live about 45 minutes away in Greencastle, PA and we were able to visit with them and go to dinner at the Country Club! It was so good to see them. We love hanging out with them when we can! We ate at some really good restaurants and it was just a great time! I will post pictures of the trip really soon!
