Campfires & Candlelight

Well, Campfires & Candlelight, the biggest event of the year and I think might be my favorite (can't decide) has been and gone.
I can't believe its already over!!! The year is just going by way to fast!!

Anyways, at Campfires & Candlelight the girls were in the Oregon Trail camp in 3rd person,
Kai got a new very pretty brown dress and apron and got to wear it for the first time at this event!
And Megs also got a new apron to go with the pretty green dress she wears. :)
My dad was inside the stockade in 1st person year 1844, the year a fire burned up to 300 ft away from the fort wall! (can't remember which side)
I was an American Red Cross Nurse in the WWI "camp" in 3rd person.
(ok, we had a fly tent and a few pictures of the saw mill that was in operation at the time)
This was my third year in the WWI "camp" and once I again refreshed my mind to the subject we talk about to visitors I think I can once again talk about in my sleep! ;)

I was able to take pictures on my break, so I shall share them here. :)




Oregon Trail Camp, they used a fly tent too. :)

Hmm.... looks like a group of trouble makers.... ;)
Everyone had so much fun and we of course were all wiped out by the time we got home!
Didn't get home and into bed till 11:45!

Next Saturday us girls are going to the Summer's End Promenade, where everyone dresses in era's from the 1840's to the 1940's and promenades back and fourth and talk  to visitos. :)
Megs will be dressed in buckskins and portraying Sarah Winnamucka
I'll be in a 1945 dress and we're not sure what Kai will be dressed in yet......

It's raining today............... yeah. *sigh* :/
Oh well, we need it. :)


Oh! We're getting a surprise tomorrow! I will post pictures next week. ;)

Have a great weekend everyone!
