Prairie Life Day with the Giles Frontier


We recently attended Prairie Life Day put on by the folks at The Giles Frontier. 


We took part in butter and book making, calf-roping, faux gold panning (gold-painted rocks) and tin-can lantern making.




We learned a bit about pioneer life in general and in Florida. We were served a tasty venison stew for lunch as well as some homemade sweets and the kids participated in a good old-fashioned three-legged race and a tug-o-war.



The kids were skeptical when we left the house that morning, but when we got in the car to leave they both said, "That was fun." I am still recovering from the shock of them actually eating deer meat!
