Late afternoon Mom & Dad took all the kids home with them so that we could go to the Rodeo and concert. We love the rodeo, watching the calf roping and bucking broncos and bulls. My favorite part though is when they get 30 teenagers and 25 calves. They left the calves loose and the teenagers have to catch the calf, put it in a harness and drag it to the center of the arena. It is so funny. The kids who catch a calf get a scholarship. This year, they added a new part to the rodeo that ended up being my favorite. It was called "mutton bustin". They get young kids (4-6 years old), put a helmet on them and put them on a lamb. The kids hold on as long as they can. So cute!!

Here's some pictures of Addy at the rodeo:

Fun!! I miss going to the rodeo every spring!!!!
What fun! We always like the animal part to the fair. You know I do not think I have been to a rodeo unless I went when I was Addy's age. They have a famous rodeo in Oregon, the Pendleton Roundup. In highschool, the foreign exchange students got to skip school and go. I remember thinking, hey sign me up! I want to miss school and go too. :)
