I know something I did today that you didn't do!!! I rode a camel, yes a camel in the middle of downtown Cedarburg, in the middle of winter! (alot seems wrong with this picture, doesn't it?)
The kids and I went to the Winter Festival in Cedarburg! It was a fun time, making valentines, watching ice sculptors, eating lunch at the Chocolate Factory, seeing a parade and pirates and riding a camel.
Gracie was a definite "NO" when asked if she wanted to ride and MJJ said "YES" so what the heck how often does your child have an opportunity like this? So, I escort MJJ up the stairs to pay the Camel "attendant" and he asks how old MJJ is. I reply "two" and he says "you may want to ride with him" In my head I thought "are you kidding me?" But I ride horses, so why not a camel? Let me tell you it was "different" and I wasn't as comfortable as I thought I might be (made me feel guilty that I would put my child on a camel that I wasn't excited to get on myself). Thankfully, we only went around in a circle twice and got off without getting dumped or spit on. Camels are different creatures and the look in their eyes.....well......kinda creeps me out.
So, MJJ and I can now say we rode a camel.......an accomplishment to be proud of????!!!!!
