Scottish Festival

We went down to visit Caleb's parents the weekend that Harry Potter came out (so that we could have a babysitter) just for a friendly visit. It was also the Scottish festival so we went to that too. Caleb's cousin Anthony was part of the Highland games and it was neat to catch up with him and fun to see someone we know compete.
They had a kid highland games section. The first event was balancing an egg on a spoon.
Then she tossed a rock

Caber toss
I don't remember what they called this one, but they were filled with water and she had to run with them. Then a sheep toss, you can kinda see the sheep just leaving her hands.
She did AMAZING at the highland games, they wouldn't have given her a medal if she didn't, right?
Then she cried for candy, and we had to send her to the stocks.
Grandma was naught too.
Then they picked Alyssa to go into the sheep pen and try to corral the sheep, they timed how long it took the kids and then timed how long it took the dog, to get the sheep in the pen. The dog won.


Megan was there too, but she was with anna most of the time

That looks fun! Ha ha. I love that you put your daughter and mother-in-law in the stocks. Tell Love Bread he'd better watch out... he might be next!
