We went to a rodeo at the first part of July. After watching the "Mutton bustin'," we had some time before the rest of the rodeo started so we walked around. The kids wanted a picture with the Chick-fil-A cow. (Tyler, cow, Emily, Megan)
We also got sno cones (Megan and Tyler)
The kids had never been to a rodeo before, so there was lots to see and learn
This is a monkey that rides a dog and herds sheep.

The kids loved riding their scooters around the park
We were at home for the 4th of July. Emily wanted me to do a star in her hair.
We went to a 4th of July parade.
The police did some "formation stuff" right by us before the parade began.
The fire truck was at the end of the parade and the kids loved getting soaked with the hose.
Tyler, Emily and Megan--a little wet
We had burgers on the grill for dinner.
Doing off some fireworks.
We went down to the park so we could be right underneath the fireworks. That was really cool.
Spending more time at a park.

We went to a Cub Scout Bonanza where there were different activities. The kids had a lot of fun.
Tyler racing his tinfoil boat against Megan.
Emily knocking down pop bottles
The kids made rockets out of paper and duct tape and then launched them. Emily's went the farthest over and over again.
Tyler caught his rocket one time.
The kids and I went to motocross races.

We went to some car racing. We loved these train cars. They are 3 cars hooked together with the driver in the front car and a "steer-er" in the back. They race in a figure-8 track, so sometimes they get REALLY close to crashing.

We went to a dog show at the library for FHE. Here the dog is jumping off the owner's back to catch a Frisbee.
Tyler had a chance to participate. He was to hit a golf ball into a hole, but the dog swiped it.

Emily (Emily has panda face paint on from the 24th of July float preview we attended earlier that day.)
Tyler got the free Frisbee that they through out. (He has bat face paint on.)
We went to Arctic Circle afterwards for cones.
I was able to help out at Tyler's scout activity. The boys planted seeds and helped in a garden.
Tyler received 2 belt loops at pack meeting.
We went to the Scera Outdoor Theater to see the musical "South Pacific." I didn't get any pictures at the musical, but here are our "pre-musical" activities...a picnic in the park and playing on the playground.
