Pioneer Celebration

The youth in our church went on a Pioneer Trek last week - and my hubby went with them as a leader. We welcomed them in at Rock Creek on Friday night after two long days of walking and pulling handcarts. If anyone would like to read more about the Willie and Martin Handcart Companies , which have special signifigance in our area, check out this site. Here are some pictures from Friday. I did a quick sewing job on Friday afternoon and made the girls some new pioneer skirts since their other ones are two years old and way too small - glad I had a bunch of fabric and elastic on hand! My SIL, Jamie let me borrow an old dress for Brailee - they all looked so cute!
