You got to hear about what the Dog Walker did with his in-laws, now let me tell you a little about our day. One of my favorite pioneer activities is making quilts, so we made sure to plan one into our day. It actually turned into 3, one for Skittles, one for Teach's new baby, and one for someone else that may or may not be a birthday gift!
While we were quilting, my sweetie was busy putting together Dutch Oven chicken stew, but he wasn't too busy to collect prizes and plan a shooting tournament with our 2 BB guns. That was pretty exciting and I got to be in 1st place (for a minute!). Ultimately, Crafty took 1st place, Sport took 2nd, and Drama Queen came in 3rd.
We even shared a few pioneer stories, played games, and had a chalk contest.
After our delicious dinner, my sweetie made strawberry ice cream for us! It was amazing! We settled in for the end of the evening with a fireworks show courtesy of Twiz and Teach who rushed back from their vacation in Phoenix just so they could spend part of the day with us.
The pioneers never had it this good. Happy Pioneer Day!!

Wow, it did sound like you had a wonderful pioneer day celebration. I love that you do quilts. The Dutch Oven dinner sounded yummy, along with the homemade ice cream. I do like how you all get together and do fun activities.
Blessings and hugs for all!
