We took a stagecoach ride where we were held up by a "real" bandit. It was funny to see the kids' reactions. Some were a bit hesitant, others were ready to defend us and take him down.
My mom with Andrew:
The kids:
It was a fun trip. What made it even more fun is that Madison and I have read a few books together recently to support what she's learning in school this year. Molly is doing the same with Thomas, and she recommended some great books for us to read. We recently read "Riding Freedom," based on a true story about a female stagecoach driver in California. We also read "By the Great Horn Spoon!" a gold rush adventure story of a young boy. We had a lot of fun reading them, and it was fun to bring them to life by visiting Columbia.

I enjoyed some of the same photos on Molly's blog. They are so cute to me. Memories, I guess. That one of little Andrew standing by himself is so cute. So neat that Chad and Christy's kids now join the cousin fun.
Cute pictures! That is such a fun place. I appreciate seeing a little green grass, and some kids without hats, gloves and mittens on! Miss you all!
