We were able to celebrate the 20th annual Grizzly Days in Dupuyer. Our kids rode their horses in the parade. They shut down the main street, which is also the main Highway up to Glacier. So needless to say, we had more spectators, whether they liked it or not.

Our family joke is, we put the biggest kid on the littlest horse, and the littlest kid on the biggest horse. You should have heard the crowd. They loved seeing that tiny 35 lb. boy on that giant horse.
The kids loved the bounce house, giggled at the Chicken Bingo (you bought a spot on the board and waited to see if the chicken would poop on it), they helped gathered the rubber ducks as they crossed the finish line in Dupuyer Creek, and joined right in the Greased Pig Contest (they oiled pigs up and then the kid to catch one, won).

None of our kids won, but they helped in slowing the pig down for the other kids to get it. We then headed to the creek where the kids washed of the oiled pig smell, swimming. What a fun day!
