Old-Time Fiddle Contest in Pepin WI.

Saturday, September 10, was the date of the Old-Time Fiddle Contest, held during the Annual Laura Ingalls Wilder Days in Pepin, Wisconsin. We always have so much fun at this competition! My sister and brother-in-law and their children came to compete, as well as to enjoy the event. At this Laura Ingalls Wilder event, many people dress up in historical clothing.

Warming up before the competition. My brother-in-law and two of my nephews brought their cellos to compete in one of the divisions.
My niece also competed in the fiddle contest. I love our expressions :)

Waiting to go on stage.




My niece played SO beautifully, and I was so proud of her! She performed Ash Grove and Swallowtail Jig.
I played Old South Waltz and Sally Goodin.

Here is the video!

In a separate division, the cellos played Old Joe Clark. They did an amazing job!


My nephew played Swallowtail Jig beautifully on his cello.
