Pioneer Jubilee

Saturday July 10th we went to the Benson Grist Mill for the Pioneer Jubilee. We weren't sure what to expect. There wasn't a lot to do, but the kids had a good time with the things that were there. First we all went on a hayride. Kayla jumped up front right away. Allie was a little more cautious, but she joined her sister and we took off.

Afterwards, the girls got to pet the horses. Kayla is such an animal girl. She just loves being around animals of all kinds.

Photo Opp with the horses. The man is a mechanic Nate used to work with at Kennecott.

The girls also got to be pony express riders. First they got all dressed up and got their pony and letters.

They would gallop to the chair drop off mail, gallop back to the start, then go get the mail, and finally gallop to the beginning. Kayla had fun!

Allie had fun!

We sure love our two cute little pony express riders!!!
