Celebrate Youth

Every year the school district puts on 'celebrate youth' the day before school starts.  They set up lots of different booths and games for the kids sort of like a carnival but the best part is...it is free!  This was the first year we've gone and I thought we would only be there for a couple hours but Addy was having so much fun we stayed all afternoon.
As we were walking past this bull ride, I casually asked if she wanted to ride. I totally thought she would say 'no way' so it was a big shocker when she agreed.  The guy running the booth went pretty slow at first but she hung on so he sped up and after a couple seconds Mitch asked if she wanted off and she nodded yes.  So she jumped off and then started crying. Oh well. At least she was brave enough to try.


You got to love the half closed eyes while sleeping. Creepy.





And this is when I put the camera away but she also got her hair fixed by the Paul Mitchell girls, her face painted and played on lots of bouncy house toys.  We also got lots of free stuff like books, bags, toothbrushes and little toys!  I'm thinking we will now be regular attendees.
