Some beautiful arrows that were for sale.
This little girl was getting ready in the hallway. Her whole family had on traditional dress and was preparing for the contest.
During the 'Grand Entry' all the groups came onto the main floor one by one, until everyone was dancing and whirling around the center of the gym.









We were invited to join in one of the dances. Petra was dying to try some of the moves she'd seen earlier but we just kept it to a step-slide-step-slide like everyone else.
Our only complaint of the day was that it really started so much later than advertised so we ended up spending most of the day there. We wanted to get out because there were predictions for MORE snow!

Very Cool and very colorful. Michael and I attended a pow wow once and it was something I was grateful to have gotten to go. I love that you guys got up and danced too!
I really enjoyed it, it's unfortunate that it took so long for the interesting stuff to get started because that made it take up an entire day, which was not intended. I thought it was really worth while but I think Petra was disappointed. Oh well.
