CFD 2011

We really enjoy Cheyenne Frontier Days.  This year the kids were really excited and enjoyed participating in all the activities there are to do.  We always love the delicious lemonade and kettle corn.  Manti was FINALLY big enough to join Sebastien on some of the rides so he enjoyed it much more this year.  They did pretty well staying close and when their legs were "super tired" from walking we would pile all three in the double stroller.  You know what that means.....odd looks and comments from EVERYONE!  Sometimes I have a good sense of humor about the things people say but then you get the few that are completely out of line IN FRONT of the kids.  Anyway, it was a fun year and CFD did not disappoint. 

Manti was ecstatic about the motorcycle ride.  He loved being like his daddy, even if it was only for a few minutes. 

This was Sebasiten's second year riding the motorcycles so he was pretty brave to drive one handed for a picture.  I don't know why but this seems to always be their favorite ride.
Doodle bug was a good sport about having to sit in her stroller while the boys got to play.  As long as she has her thumb, she is all GOOD!!
The best buds were so excited for the train ride but I don't think it was as cool as they thought it would be.  They enjoyed it but definitely wanted to save their tickets for better rides.
Daddy and the kiddos catching some shade to cool off.  I think this was one of the only times doodle bug got to get out of the stroller....poor girl!
The boys getting ready to ride the elephant.  They were super excited about this ride because the elephants are suppose to go up and down.  Wouldn't it figure that the ONE elephant that doesn't work is the one they chose?? They were a little bummed about that but still thought it was pretty cool to be so high in the air.
Doodle bug got to have a little fun with Mom while the boys were riding the elephants.  Don't you just love that little smile?
Troy and I went to two concerts this year.  Darius Rucker with Kevin Costner....yes you read that right.  Kevin Costner the actor!! Who knew he was the lead singer in a band??  We sure didn't.  He was the opening act for Darius Rucker and was pretty good.  Towards the end though, Troy and I were getting very anxious to hear the main act!
Here he is....the man of the hour!!  He was amazing to see in concert and we both really enjoyed his concert.  He is definitely one we would love to see again in the future.
I don't have any pictures from the second concert and cannot remember who we saw, I guess it wasn't that great. Ha!
