Strawberry Days!

Oh how I LOVE Strawberry Days! We had such a blast this year. We had hoped to start with the carnival on Wednesday but we didn't realize that it didn't start until 6pm that night, the kids were bummed but they got over it. That night we headed to the rodeo. Bella did the Mutton Bustin this year. She was all excited until she found out the sheep run. She was thrown on a sheep and was shoved out the gate and immediately ate dirt. She was very mad about it for a few days but now she loves to tell everyone she rode a sheep. Some of her cousins rode too.
Here is Hadlee and Bella.

All the cousins that rode.

I just love the look of pure terror on her face in this one.

Then on Friday we went to Huck Finn Days. We had one sister for each line so the kids could hop from line to line.
There was a fish pond.

Horse rides.

Then Saturday morning was the Grand Parade. It rained but we were prepared, so it wasn't too bad.

The pic of Bella on the sheep, still waiting in the gaits, does not do justice to how she was really TERRIFIED! I wish I'd filmed her screaming, "No mommy, please, no mommy!" It' fun having kids :)
