Well, we managed to make our way through the crowds to celebrate Family Day at the Stampede with Grace. I am not sure how 20,000 people ate breakfast before 830 in the morning, but I was fine with paying 5.00$ for a rather average corn dog instead of waiting for nearly 3 hours in line for some bacon and eggs. Have we lost all of our marbles people? (LOL) We spent most of our time in the Agricultural Tents cooing over the piglets and the miniature donkeys. Grace thought the horses were pretty cool, lots of big smiles and reaching out for pets...however, mommy had visions of circus animals that go bad so we didn't get close enough for her to touch. Amazingly Grace slept through an hour of mayhem on the grounds while Mom and Dad walked about to find the best fries and mini doughnuts. Basically, a good time was had by all and we can tag it in the log book as a mission completed! Happy Stampede everybody, only 7 more days till we get our city back!!
