What a cute little shirt Moolah has on. Did she have a little kilt too? Next year I'll remember to get kilts made for Strider's Kids!

What did Moolah think of the games. Was she interested in participating?

We intended by buy kilts for the kids. Moolah insisted that she didn't want one. It didn't matter anyway in the end, there were no tot-sized Gordons to be had. We did get a card from someone who can make us some for next year.

Moolah did the whole round of the kids games and won a medal. There was carrying a golf ball in a spoon out about 10 feet, around a stake and back. Then throwing a big rock. Then a caber toss. The smallest caber was HUGE! Then carrying some water jugs around a chair and back. Finally throwing a weight (it was supposed to go up over a bar, but little kids just threw it). Daddy (and the camera) were watching the sheepdogs during this adventure, so no photos of that. He did get some other good shots, I'll post those soon.

It was my pleasure! A day spent surrounded by men in skirts is always a good day.
