Whirlwind and MMMM

We had a whirlwind kind of weekend here.  Bull riding, parades, carnival, street dances, we did it all. Not all at once, but still we were busy having fun.

Bruiser before the bull riding started.  After he was a bit freaked out.

There were some really good rides.

The rodeo clown was great--kept the audience laughing.

Saturday was all about the carnival.

Turbo was in red at the top row.

Turbo's first ferris wheel ride--with his mom.

Getting ready for the Silver Streak!

 Saturday morning Nick was involved in staging the parade.  They had over 100 entries, but the parade coordinator did a great job in keeping things organized. It did rain on the end of the parade, but people stuck it out to see the end of the parade, even if they did get wet.
Saturday evening we cruised the street dances, and had a late dinner.  It's really nice that we live within walking distance of downtown so it's easy to get down there and enjoy the festivities.
By Sunday we were more than ready to stay at home and be lazy.  Although I did get laundry done and even though our dishwasher gave up the ghost, I've been able to keep up with the dishes too. 

And now for MMMM:
This week it is your favorite country artist or rock & roll artist. I like some of both. So here we go:
Brad Paisley with Alcohol:

Kasey Musgraves with Blowin' Smoke:

And a throw back to my high school days: Bon Jovi with You Give Love a Bad Name:

Who are your favorite artists?
