Our first Rodeo

And probably my last. We went with some friends friday night to a Rodeo that ws in town a few minutes north of us. I thought since we had never been the boys might enjoy it and I was interested to see one too...I wasn't a fan. They are definitely over-rated, I felt COMPLETELY out of place (considering I wasn't wearing my boots, cowgirl hat, or belt buckle!) and I thought it was a slight form of animal cruelty...just my opinion. Anyway here are some pictures from the night- the boys did think it was kind of fun, I wouldn't say they loved it, but atleast now they've been.
besides that, anyone who wants to get that close to an angry bull this size is nutty!

Maddox did like seeing the "cowboys" as he referred to them.
I mean seriously, WHAT is that guy thinking??

Jackson thought they were crazy too!

I have to agree about the Rodeo. What are those guys thinking and who would have thought to ride a bronking bull anyway. It was interesting though. Glad you had a chance to take the boys, I bet they were facinated. Thanks for the update. Love all my boys and our sweet Lauren too.

hahaha. I think the same thing! I hate going to Rodeos. In Stratton's family it is a tradition to go every year! UGH! Unfortunate for me!

and I'm sorry Anna!

I can't say that would be my choice for a night out --- sorry guys. I think anyone who would go into a pen with a crazy bull must be minus lots of screws. I guess it's good to see at least one so you know what you don't want to do the next time around. I be the boys were a little frightened too!
Lots of love,
Gram

I would like horse stuff, but not the bull stuff. How is school going for Jackson? Haven't seen the dog lately. How big is he now? Love always.
