It is that time of year again...FAIR TIME!
The last two weeks has been..."___ many days 'til MY rodeo Mom!"...EVERY DAY!!!
And, here we finally are...Rodeo Night!!!
Christian did very well this year in the Little Tykes Rodeo at our county fair! At first he was kind of nervous but he stepped up and did it all this year!
His roping needs a lot of work but he had fun trying...
He was fast on the stick horse and with the times that they announced for the winners I think he would have come in 4th, but they only award the top three...
And, then we had the most famous event of them all....Run and Touch the Blue Heeler! Yep, you read that right. They usually touch a calf that is being held down but, someone complained that it was inhumane to hold down the calf while the kids ran up and touched it, so they had to change it to a dog that they touched. Really? Inhumane? We're at a rodeo people! They ride, rope and tie down animals for money!
Anyway, Christian is one fast little boy!
So fast that he...WON FIRST PLACE!!!!
Rylen won't be old enough to participate until next year but he wanted to do it so bad. So, after it was over we let him do the events by himself. He didn't know, he was just having fun and thought he was doing everything his big brother was doing. One of the ladies gave Brogan a participation ribbon and Brogan tried to give it back bt she told her to keep it. It's a good thing we did because we gave it to Rylen and he was SO HAPPY!!! He thought he won just like Christian!
It was a great night at the rodeo...the BEST one I have ever been to!! Here are some fun pics...
