Strawberry Festival Weekend

The weekend of the Poteet Strawberry Festival was a blast for us.  The festival is HUGE, and has every kind of food you could ever want with strawberries in it.  The Poteet strawberries are the best you will ever have.  They are so good, in fact, that HEB makes a special ice cream called Poteet Strawberry ice cream.  My aunt always stays with us the weekend of the festival because she works for a nearby visitors bureau and they always have an exhibit at the festival.  It is always a treat for us to have her for the weekend, and we always have fun preparing the strawberries from the festival together.

This is part of my aunt's booth.  They have two small horses and 1 large horse for kids and adults to take pictures on.  Notice the pose...
  Tanner got roped by one of my aunt's coworkers.  
Clinton wanted to try his hand at trick roping. As you can see, he is very good =)

Watching the pig races.  They were hilarious!
This was the strawberry shortcake that my aunt made and it was DELICIOUS!!! We washed and hulled 2 full flats of strawberries this weekend but the strawberry shortcake made it all worth it!. 
                                   Sofi and Tanner gobbled it us as quickly as everyone else!
