SUMMER ADVENTURE 2016- Day 10

Rodeo time, Young Life style!
The whole camp shows up and competes in all sorts of games and challenges.  It is full of laughs.


This is whole camp tug of war!  The rope is a giant circle and everyone just pulls and pulls.  I got pushed out on the first pull, fell right on my rear end!!  Look at Addison squished on Luke's right side!  All you can see is her pink plaid shirt, she is so squished!
This challenge was a race to fill the bucket by balancing a full water bucket on our heads and running to the other side of the corral.  

Go Mimi!  She was fast, even in cowgirl boots!

Stephen and I pulled Addison so fast on this shovel that she flew off when we turned the corner.  Whoops!

The rodeo also included water balloon tosses, dizzy bat relays and other fun contests.

Then in the afternoon we went horseback riding.  It was a beautiful ride and Amelia and Luke loved it.  


The minimum age to horseback ride is 8 years old but Addison didn't miss us for a second.  If a child is too young for an activity she goes with her Kid Wrangler and basically gets to do whatever she wants.  So Addison got to visit with this new baby horse and go swimming while we were gone.  
The camp photographer captured these great pictures of Addison.


There are also planned "Kid Wrangler" times where the kids are split up into ages and have all sorts of fun activities with their Wranglers.  It allows moms and dads to have some time together as well.  It is always fun to see the pictures from the photographer of all of the fun they had without us!
