At the San Jacinto Memorial

Dad and the girls with the canons!!
There is a plaque on each of the canons.
From the memorial, looking up at the Monument. This is all in memory of San Jacinto.
There it is!!
Nick, Hannah, and Me being sailors!!


We went outside of the memorial, and there were mocks of the "twin sisters". These were canons that defeated Santa Ana's army. They were a gift from Cincinnati. As a result of using these canons, if gave Texas their freedom! Yeeeeeahhhh!! At the memorial, there is the ship from D-Day. It is up close. Pretty sweet! Nick LOVED this! He wants to be a history teacher, so he was excited to come to these places. Here are more pictures!

Love,
Ang
