Dolores River Festival

Caroline tries out the aerial equipment. 
 
Each year the Dolores River Festival is held to celebrate the river that runs through our town.  It has several booths and fun activities for the kids along with live music all day long.  The kids love the aerial show. This year one of the vendors was offering long board trials on the lake so we all took advantage of this fun event.  There was a great magician as well this year.  A great event that is free for kids 12 and under!
 
Grace takes a turn as well.

And Courtney too!

Joseph was excited to try out his kayak, but he liked the long board better.  I didn't get any pictures of him on it though. The lake is super low and it was so, so muddy on the bottom.  I tried out the long board after watching all the kids and getting off was standing in mud up to my knees!

Alex paddles out with the instructor.

Grace gets brave and stands up!

Courtney enjoyed her ride sitting down.

Alex on the board by himself. He was standing up in about 5 minutes.

Caroline gets ready to come ashore. She probably talked the instructor to death.
