Robbie Rodeo 2017

In August we attended our favorite rodeo!

Here's a few snapshots

(and a video at the end)

of the good times that were had by all!

 Time for the stick-horse races!

Jacob's first time entering!!

Robbie did a great job this year,

completing his heat.

Cousin Scott,

my kids' FAVORITE REAL COWBOY!

Taylor did well in her stick-horse race as well!

These two did so well

working together in the three-legged-race

Lovin' Cousin Scott

This random girl

was just SO cute

I had to snap a photo

We were spectators for the rest of the time

until it was time for the sheep riding!

Jacob had his heart set on riding a sheet this year

and he got his helmet and pads all set

But then while trying to walk around

with limited vision because of the helmet

he fell and busted his lip

which dampened his mood for riding a sheep.

He sure looks cute in his helmet though!

Taylor, on the other hand,

was determined to get a long ride this year

after last year's half a second debacle.

She got all geared up

The expert cowboys helped get her settled,

and she was off!

(She requested that I film it in slow-mo,

so here ya go!)

Thanks Cousin Scott for such a good time!

It's the highlight of my kids' year!
