Fiesta weekend was NOT the time to take a siesta from camping, I tell you!

The weather was great – and we had mucho recreation to share with all my camping buddies.  Mexican bean games, horseshoes, sombrero and maraca making

relay games, bingo, jewelry making and so much more!

Saturday night, was our Fiesta Party.  Yeah, you heard me, a FIESTA PARTY!   I couldn’t believe how many campers showed up.  At least two quadrillion and three!    The playing field was full, full, full!

When Tami brought me I didn’t know which game to choose first.

Then I saw my favorite.

The bouncy house.

But Tami was right behind me saying, “blah, blah blah.”

No.  Really.  She was saying, “Maxx!  You know better . .. no bouncy house for you.”

When I pouted and scuffed the dirt with my sneaker, she said.  “No worries, Maxx.  There’s lots of fun things for a big moose like you to do.”

She took me to the Mexican Jumping Bean game

and then to the ring toss

Some of my friends suggested we go see Nancy at the dart game

I didn’t try that one, ’cause . . . well . . . moose don’t have fingers and I didn’t want to send a dart flying into the trees.    So I went to the pin-the-tail-on-the-donkey game!

First I got my eyes covered

Then I tip toed ahead until I felt the donkey poster under my hooves.  I pinned the tail and was only a liiiiiiii-ttle bit off.  My friends thought I did great!

I watched Alex give out some tattoos. I wished for the forty thousandth time that they’d get the ones that stick to fur.

Tami said, “Yeeeee-ah.  I’ll get right on that.”

Then Tami and I went to see Debbie and Ron who were cooking up sopa pias . . . fried dough!

They said they fried up 160 of them!  Some people put honey and some put cinnamon sugar . . . some used both.  They were so yummy, I gobbled down three.  Shhhhhhh!  Don’t tell Tami, ’cause she said I could only have two.

Finally, we went to the pinata breaking.

Bryant is a brave, brave kid, let me tell you!

Three pinatas were broken and lots of treats were given out.  One of my little friends even shared her winnings with me!  That red candy was yummmmmmmy!

Now I’m off to find my cape and mask so I join my crime fighting friends as  . . .

Dah . . . DAH . . . DAAAAAAAH
