Last weekend we got a visit from my parents... aka Grammy and Grampy Bowerbank. They arrived early Friday evening and it was SO great to see them!! We only had a short time with them so starting early Saturday we packed in the activities.
Sutter's Mill... we've been here a few times and didn't know they did these re-enactments...( a
bit bizarre) but seeing the people in costume gave us a taste of what it was like back in the gold rush days... and we learned a lot about the different groups that migrated to the area for gold. Polynesians, Chinese, and so many others from all different races and backgrounds. It was quite a big melting pot...and explains the great diversity that is still here. 
Ate the MOST delicious ice cream here! YUM.
Dad, lookin like he belongs here.
Gomez and Mase taking a breather.
Inside the Mormon cabin. About 10x10 feet and six guys lived here!
A replica of The Mill.
Such a pretty area... we'd like to own some land out here someday.
We later enjoyed dinner, at The Hacienda in Old Town Folsom, with my parents who love to treat us whenever they get the chance. Then with full belly's we headed to the Sacramento Temple which is absolutely beautiful!! 
I always love to go to the Temple with my Mom and Dad. They are such great examples to us. And it is always a treat to go to such a beautiful place and feel so much peace.
