Day 2 of the Springville Folkfest

So to start this day out we had to be at the Arts park by 8:30am. We all got them there just a little late. Then the practiced and I went home and took Tyler to a dentist appointment. He has a very swollen gum around one tooth. so the are going to pull it on Wednesday's. Then I went back and picked them up and we all headed over for the picnic up Hobble Creek Canyon at Kelly's Grove. The had a BBQ. Then it is sitting around getting to know other country's and other host families.
