Gold Fever Days

Saturday was the towns annual gold fever days. We actually went last year whne we were living in the hotel. The kids always have a lot of fun there. The do some reinactments of some battles and a saloon fight. We also watched horseshoeing and target shooting. They have a bunch of artifacts to look at and of course music. I didn't know my kids had such an appreciation for bluegrass! We sat and listened to the band for over an hour! It was a great family band with mom, dad, two girls and a boy. It was pretty chilly and windy that day, especially since two days before we were swimming! Here are a few pictures from our day!

You can tell what the boys thought was the most interesting.

I love it when they all get along!
