Field Trip

Last week, I took the girls on a field trip to Parker Homestead in Harrisburg, Arkansas.  It is an old homestead representing life in the late 1800's.  It was a beautiful day to be outside & fun to go on an official field trip!

The girls listening to the blacksmith tell about his trade.
