What fun May brought our family. There is a local living history event held near our home in Ft. Tejon, so Eric, Wendy, Amy and several members from our homeschool group dressed in 1850 period costume and spent 24 hours making candles, making butter, learning carpentry, doing laundry outdoors, and making adobe bricks in a mud pit. They camped out and cooked their meals over an open fire. Many of the children walked with Eric in our local Lilac Festival in their costumes, and our group even won a first place trophy!

Pigs flew at the Kern County Fair
Saturday, September 30th, 2000
This month, we took a trip to the Kern
County Fair, where we were
able to see one of our favorite events: The famous Alaskan
racing pigs!
We love watching and cheering for our favorite hams as they run the course and fly over the hurdles.
