My Little Mountain Men





Last week we went on a journey to Veyo, and the Mountain Man Rendezvous. It was a bit chilly (at least for Mommy) but the boys had the TIME of their lives! They participated in a sac race, an archery shooting contest and received a special rock with rock painting on it. The boys were fascinated with the tomahawk throwing contest and LOVED shopping for the perfect souvenirs! Of course we came home with two wooden rifles and a tomahawk and knife. We had yummy Navajo tacos,fried hot dogs on a stick and tried a fried Twinkies :) On the way out, the boys were very brave...they marched up to a tee pee, yelled "HELLO" and asked if they could come in and see the inside of an Indian tee pee. The gentleman was very nice and showed them around. The boys thought everyone there was either Daniel Boone or Davy Crockett, and loved meeting some of their heroes. What a fun and learning experience!
MY VERY MOST FAVORITE PICTURE! Aren't they the cutest!!!
