Yesterday I accompanied Nick and 5 boys to the 50th anniversary celebration of the Nez Perce Spalding mission park near Lapwai as a fun way to celebrate Gunnar's birthday. Cousin Ransom and classmate George Evans came along, who both also turned 8 in the past 3 weeks. Signe stayed in Moscow to attend 2 other birthday parties (whew!). There was a horse parade and tribal drumming and dancing. The boys explored underbrush, hiked along old railroad tracks, threw rocks in the river, and caught snakes and bugs. So basically a perfect day out for little boys.
