Calgary Stampede

We were fortunate to make it to the Stampede on the final day - Daddy took the afternoon off work and the kids missed a nap - which you never know how that is going to go!  But thankfully, it went so well!

Charlie LOVED the Stampede this year!  We were able to see Thomas the Train, Barney, a few marching bands, and the best part of all, he got his face painted!  Charlie was SOOOOO EXCITED to get his face painted, and amazingly, he allowed the artist to paint his face and sat perfectly still!  He held my hand while the lady worked, but other than that, he was not shy or scared at all.

Charlie also loved the marching bands.  He would watch and then clap at the end - how great is that!??  Now all we have to do is get Charlie drumming to a beat :)

Here are a few pictures from the day off of Doug's iphone.  I didn't want to take my camera and worry about it all day, so here you go!!!!



See how he is holding my hand?? :)
Two minutes into a new face, and it is already smudged :)  He did a great job of not touching his face!
Watching Barney :)  Can you tell he is happy?
Home after a long day!  And the face is still there!
