Swimming Lesson Graduates

June 19, 2009

Kaila and Justice graduated from swimming lessons. We chose to start the week after school got out, and we could not have chosen a worse week. It only did not rain about 3 days of the 9 (11 counting the make up days). It looks all nice in this picture below, but this was taken at 11:30 am, the gray clouds were rolling in and it ended up raining about 1 hour later for the rest of the day. In fact, we had to do a makeup day on Saturday and the next Friday because of the rain. They swam in the pool while it rained for 3 days. They had fun, however, Griff and I took cover under the pool umbrellas.

Strawberry Days Rodeo
June 18, 2009

We had to go down to the Strawberry Days Rodeo, the kids loved it last year because of the motorcycle half time entertainment. They also like the bull riding!!

Justice giving me his "cool" fingers when the motorcycles came out. Yep, they even did a few back flips for the crowd. I think this has become my favorite part of the rodeo too!!
Justice's happy smile inbetween jumps. I took some pictures of the riders doing tricks, but with my crappy camera and them being at a distance they didn't work.
