Independence Day!! 7/4/11

Happy 4th of July!

To celebrate the holiday, we went to an old-fashioned historic festival at the site of the oldest standing structure in Denver.

Harrison panned for gold.

Kevin and the little guys posed with the buffalo.

We checked out a blacksmith shop in action (while enjoying our homemade root beer!)

Harrison got to play in an old stage coach
.
While Declan and I relaxed in the shade...it was HOT!

Harrison loved this building...this was where cookies were being baked in an old-fashioned wood stove...yummy!

Everyone was tired after the festival and we never did find any cake (Harrison thought there should be a birthday cake there since we told him it was our country's birthday)...so maybe we'll have cupcakes tonight!
