Today I was not ready to leave. We were having so much fun. Sometimes vacations are so much work. I feel like I need a vacation from the vacation. But not this time. The kids were so well behaved and we had so many things planned and we were just carefree and kick back. We decided to stop at the American West Heritage Museum. We walked around the museum and the kids enjoyed the little rooms set up from the past. We then went outside and were able to learn rope making, horse shoe making, toy making, how to wash clothes and dry them(without a washer or dryer), taste some gingersnap cookies fresh from the oven, ride a train, ride a pony, pan for gold, visit lots of farm animals, talk with mountain men, go inside a tepee, look at lots of old buildings, and old fashioned homes, and lots more fun. We spent almost 4 hours exploring and learning about the American West.
Once we got home we unpacked the car and loaded immediately back in for a taco night at the Sandberg's home. Kevin came into town and we were all able to eat and visit with one another. The guys took all the boys to the park and the girls stayed back at the house and let the girls play. We had a fun night playing with cousins.
