Rodeo Season

Still catching up....

The end of February and beginning of March mean only one thing in Houston . . . Rodeo.  I just love this time of year. We started off Rodeo season with Rodeo Round-up at Miles' school.  Pony rides, petting zoo, crafts and BBQ.  What else can you ask for?

 Miller with his buddy Katelyn from Pre-K 1.

 Then Miller had a Rodeo Dance at his school.  It was so cute watching them do all the dances they learned.  Miller's partner was Libby. Her mom said she was so excited when she got Miller as a partner.

 Miller and his teacher Ms. Denise.  We just loved her!

 We took the boys to the Houston Rodeo Livestock Show and Carnival again this year and had so much fun!

 The big slide!

 After two years of chickening out, Miller decided he would do Mutton Bustin' this year.  If you aren't familiar with Mutton Bustin' it's a competition where children 5 & 6 years old ride/race sheep.  Here he is giving us the thumbs up right before his turn.

 Getting on his sheep.

 Holding on for his life.  He didn't make it but half way down the arena, before he started sliding to one side and fell off.

 He had so much fun and it's such a hoot to watch.  Here are all the kiddos that went with him getting their certificates.

 Roller Coaster with Daddy and loving every minute of it!

 I absolutely love this picture even though it's blurry.  I love that they both have their mouths open and are having the time of their life!  What's better than this?

After the carnival we took the boys to the big rodeo.  We only lasted about an hour but they had so much fun watching the bull and bronc riding.  This is what the boys looked like sitting in their seats with all the stuffed animals they had won playing games at the carnival. We did not help them win, they won all these on their own.
