Wildcat

This past weekend here in Elkford we had out Wildcat days.  It started for us by going to the fireworks on Friday night.  They did a great job again this year.  The kids really liked them.  It was so late when they started that Caleb just layed on my shoulder while watching; a couple times he would raise his head a little, point and oooh about it.  I really love how they echo in the mountains.  Then they have tons of stuff going on for Saturday and Sunday.  So we went to go have fun!

 Caleb hangen out and watching Braiden have fun in those bouncy castle things.  I took him into the smallest one.  It was a worm one, and so you had to crawl through it, and then finally at the end you got to go down a slide.  He was not to happy about it though.  The whole time we were in there he held onto me for dear life, and would kind of whimper/cry through it.  It was not an easy feat getting through that thing.  But he loved the little slide at the very end.  So we ended up on a happy note.  Later on Blaine tried to take him and he refused... loudly!

 A girl was there giving people tattoos.  Of course Braiden had to get one.  He loves tattoos.  Here he is waiting patiently for his

 And here is the finished product!  He loves it, he kept his sleeve up for most of the day

 Caleb looking pretty tired here.  He was determined not to miss a thing, and refused to nap till we left.  Crazy kid...

 Braiden got to help the magician out for a bit.  It was so funny, and you can tell that he loved being up there.  

This is actually a picture taken while waiting for the parade.  He was pretty excited for the day to start.  It was a fun weekend.  They always do a great job, and I love that Blaine was able to have most of it off so that we could all go together.    The sunburns are so worth it.

I am just loving that summer is here, and that school is out!  Looking ahead to one great summer.

Below is a little video of Braiden helping out the magician guy.  Love how much fun he is having.
