July 24th we invited some families and the Elders over to celebrate Pioneer day with us. We had all the kids bring their bikes and scooters over and we decorated them with balloons and streamers.
After they were done decorating we had a little parade down our street.
Jared and Anna enjoyed it so much their bikes still have their decorations on them. After the parade we went in the backyard to have some gunny sack races, three legged races, and a stick pull. It was fun to watch all the kids have fun with the old fashioned games.
After the games we ate some hot dogs, corn on the cob, salads, and southern BBQ. It was all so yummy! The missionaries shared a message with everyone and then we had a really good peach and berry dutch oven cobbler with ice cream. It was a fun day.

I love dutch oven peach cobler!
Good for you for creating your own celebration. We need to do that here in Bako since the stakes no longer do the big pioneer village celebration. Looks so fun!
Ditto to Rinez's comment! I am so proud of you for getting a pioneer day celebration together. Good Fun as well as joyfully celebrating our pioneers.
Well done.
Love, Mom
