Jump back to 1888 ~ Our daughter Kay attends school and learns to cipher, spell, recite, use pen and ink and play traditional games at the Tassajara Grammar School.

Today Bailey got to experience a day at school in 1888. Earlier this month, they had to pick an "old" name (she wanted to use Hibachan's name ~ Kay). They dressed in prairie clothes and brought food that kids would've eaten back then. When they got to school they hopped into cars and drove to the one room school house for a fun-filled morning! She said her favorite part was sitting in the old desks and writing with the quill pen and the worst part was the day being so short!

| This morning I packed Kay's lunch in a bucket ~ apple muffin, croissants, beef jerky, dried apples, cookie and water |
 |
| Covered it with her napkin and sent her on her way |

| Here's Kay decked out in her prairie dress and bonnet Grandma sewed for her. Mommy (barely) managed the apron and knitted a shawl. Doesn't she make a cute prairie girl?? |
