We thought we would make mountain man breakfast in the dutch
oven. It seemed pioneerie. So we got up at 6am to get breakfast done by 7, in the car by 8, at the park by 9. So I'm cooking away, but it's not cooking. It took an hour for me to realize the
coals had gone out. We finally got breakfast done at 9. Needless to say we needed to revamp our schedule. We finished, cleaned up and took
naps. The night before Kimball had a BAD night. He didn't go to sleep until 4am. I think he is teething. So I laid down as well. I woke up to find I was the only one who had fallen asleep. Poor Craig. We jumped in the car and headed up.
We had such a great time. They had a ton of special events for the kids. The kids watched a magic show, participated in an old fashion candy cannon, McKay entered a watermelon eating contest. He was so cute it amazes me how he is always wiling to participate in everything. While Kimball, McKay & I were at the contest Craig took the girls to brave the hour wait to ride the ponies. We finished, pounded on some leather found some of our friends, talked for a moment then headed down to the ponies & Craig and the girls were next in line so we passed Kimball in. They loved it. Josies was named Princess, it was the smallest with a pink harness. I wonder why she wanted to ride her? Abby was the one who was determand to ride, and relished every moment in her couple minute ride. Kimball wasn't so sure this was a fun thing.

The small petting zoo consists of sheep, goats & a calf. It also has a small stream that runs down the center. They loved this place. Kimball has no fear. He ran right to the sheep and kept calling them "doggie". Every time we looked over to the stroller we found the sheep licking our water bottles and eating our granola bars. It was quite funny.
What a wonderful day in an original pioneer village.
