The Pet Parade

Millard county had a street fair one day where the hosted a pet parade, chicken run, bunny run, trout catch with bare hands, and lots of other activities. We did the trout catch, and chicken run. By far the best was the trout catch. What made it better was our good friends Doug and Megan came up to visit!

The night before we had a bonfire in the backyard with our friends. It was so much fun and we made some more hilarious memories. There is truly never a dull moment when we are with them. 

Dawson took a million pics- but I'm only posting 1. Lol! 

The trout catch was awesome! The first round Dawson got so close, but no fish. Then they let my age group go and I missed as well. Then Dawson was prepping for his second round and aught one before the whistle so they made him put it back....... But he redeemed himself again! He caught one and was so proud! Those things were so slippery it was amazing that he held onto it. 

Then my turn again- and i tracked down this huge fish in the bunch, and had to grab between its gills to hold onto it! I was SO excited!!! Me and Dawson had to watch and learn how to gut a fish, but in the end we just gave them to the cats.... so gross. Lol! 

The chicken run was a joke with 2 chickens and 40 kids. Not exactly fun cuz the chickens didn't run. They just got picked up in 2 seconds- Dawson was a little upset but we reminded him that he got a fish and not everyone was able to do that. After that he was once again proud and the chickens forgotten. 

There were free bounce houses which is where most of the time was spent! Also a balloonist was there and made a ninja turtle for Dawson! It was a great day and ended with a serious sunburn on my end-  whoops!
