Getting Ready

Getting Ready 

 

My brother, sister, and I are going 10 day primitive rendezvous    this summer to a in Minnesota with
 my grandparents. So for 10 days we will wear clothes
and shoes that kids in the 1840 would have worn.
We will cook on the fire, sleep on the ground,
and wash our clothes in the river.
While we are there we will shoot black powder riffles,
 go to the trading shops, and have canoe races. 
          

That little block on the pink skirt is the soap I will wash
my hair with, it is oatmeal honey soap!  

This is my dress

We had more lambs this morning. Blackberry had two ram lambs!!

I made the jammies the night before.  We put them on for a day or two to keep them toasty and warm! 

Here are two videos I took today in the barn.  They are a bit dark but it still gives you a peek into what is happening in the barn.  New life is such a wonder and as my sister has said over and over about the lambs "They are so cute."  Or "O' I love You Sugar Booger."
