Taylors Oregon trail

Taylor is in the 5th grade this year and having been learning all about the pioneers and the journey that they made. It has been a lot of fun for her . The school told the kids that they were going to get to experience what the pioneers went through and have them walk the Oregon Trail. They asked them to dress like the pioneers did and they broke them up into families and had them pull carts around the school. At one point pretty early in the journey they were told to stand in a circle and in the middle of the circle were a bunch of cards. They then told them to each go grab a card and read it. On the card it had something the they had to carry out, like having a broken leg or arm or even dying. So Taylor grabbed her card and read it and wasn't too happy with what it said. She died. They had her lay down and they had funeral for her and then her husband remarried right there on the spot. it was pretty funny hearing her tell me all about it. This is the little dress that my mom made for her to wear. It was so dang cute. She was so excited and said she was by far the best dressed. You us Taylor's we go all out when it comes to sewing!
