Super Angie...partying at Brother Brigham's


On Friday, we all went to THIS IS THE PLACE for a Pioneer Tea party with my mom (the kids call her gaga). We were all given bandannas to wear wet around our neck and off we went. 
First to the horse corral, to pet some animals and of course, ride some horses.
 

 The boys had a fabulous time riding and even got to ride a few times. 
Tanith ran around, looking through the fences, smiling and yelling "HI" to all the animals, and her brothers.
 She was very proud that they were riding the horses. 
Luckily, for my allergies sake, 
she  doesn't realize she could have taken a turn on the
 horses too, so she was quite content to just watch and yell.
Next, the boys saw a player piano and then we took a train around the park, getting off to dance at Brigham Young's farm house. They got to dress in costumes from a special trunk in his farm house, and do the Virgina Reel.
Brennan and Dallin were the only boys, and they did a great job. A wagon ride pulled by two large horses was next and then back on the train to go to the tea party, which was held in a beautiful house. 
I stayed outside with Tanith (playing in the grass, wandering around and eating snacks), while my mom stayed inside with the boys. They enjoyed peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, scones, grapes (green, not red--much to Brennan's dissatisfaction) and a Shirley Temple. Cupcakes with plastic rings (a skeleton for Dallin, Donkey from Shrek for Brennan)for dessert. 
The highlight was dipping candles. 
Brennan and Tanith stayed outside with Gaga, while I helped Dallin...but he didn't need any help. He made the biggest candle and had a blast.

Luckily the weather was cooler, so we all had a lovely time, instead of burning up in the heat of the day. Thanks Gaga for coming with on this adventure! We had a great day partying at Brother Brigham's!
