Calgary Stampede

Caden LOVED the Calgary Stampede, and so did Jeff and I! We went last Thursday and had a lot of fun. :) We took Caden to the grounds on the train and I think that was his favourite part of the day! When we got off he waved at the passengers (some waved back) and said, "Bye bye choo choo". It was cute!

When we got there we took Caden on a few rides. Jeff took him on a gigantic slide which Caden loved. He also took him on the carousel, and I took him on a bumble bee ride that went high up when we pulled on a bar. The higher the better for Caden, which surprised me!

We took Caden to the Superdog show and that kept his attention for a while. He was able to watch dogs do all kinds of special tricks. Then Caden took a nap and Jeff and I were able to see some things that we wanted to see without a cranky baby, which was nice! :)

When Caden woke up we took him to the army exhibit at the request of Daddy. :) We also took him to see all kinds of animals. Caden got to watch a cow being milked and, as you can tell from from the look on his face, he was a little confused...

Then we got our little cowboy some cotton candy and caught the train back to our car. All in all it was a great day. I can't wait for the stampede next year!

I also put up a few pictures of Caden with "Ammie" and "Bampie" Jones at their work's stampede breakfast, which they invited us to. Caden was a little grumpy in the pictures because Mommy wouldn't let him play with Bampie's computer and phone. He also had a cold and wasn't feeling well. He's still not quite over it, but he's getting better. :)
