Car rides are FUN! Well, they are getting better. Maybe we can go on a trip longer than 20 minutes soon!
On Sunday we ventured down to Leavenworth for the annual Wenatchee River Salmon Festival. This has to be my favorite festival. So unique! It has grown so much from our last time there two years ago. The first thing we did was to go in the costume parade. All the kids got dressed up! Brooke was having fun (although you wouldn't know from the photos).
Here we go! The parade of animals, plants and who knows what else!
Brooke painted this fish at the fair. We would have taken more photos if my camera had not run out of batteries. I can't believe all the things kids can do there. To name a few: kayaking (in one of the fish trap areas), shooting (bb guns), bow and arrow, fly tying and casting, Native village with fire smoking salmon, a maze, a huge fish tank, owls and eagles, go carts, the list goes on and on. When Brooke is about four years old I think we could spend the whole day there!
We were so proud of Brooke. She was so BRAVE! She not only hugged the people in the fish and beaver costumes (over and over again!!!) but she got her first face paint! What a grown up girl! I also cut her hair again in the back. It looks so cute and grown up. I really like this shorter hair cut on her.
