Country Fun

End of July and first part of August we went to a couple rodeos. We also went to the carnival rides during the Cache County Fair. It was a blast and we had fun watching the kids have fun. Casey didn't dare go on but a couple rides last year. This year he wanted to buy the tickets himself, and go on all the rides we would let him. Here are some pictures of a few of the rides we went on.

He caught some air on this one, he was scared for a second and then had a huge grin after.



Roller Coaster


Merry-go-round. The only ride we would let Brooke go on. Everytime we walked past it she would let us know that she wanted to go on it again by her pointing and squeling.


Train Ride


Family Picture at the Preston rodeo, we don't get family pictures in very often :)


This was the specialty act at the Logan Rodeo. It was amazing. These horses are huge! They are a type of draft horse, and one of them is the tallest in North America. I stood next to it and I would have to jump to look over it's back. This guy did two different acts with them. The first one they pulled a wagon and did some amazing manuevers, then the second act was what you see in the picture below. He stood on the back two horses and rode around the arena. It was the highlight of the fair!

You guys have been up to quite a bit! Always fun to see pictures of your adventures! Thanks for the fun camping trip this week. We'll have to go garage saling another time. ;)
