Yee-Haw!!

Several ;) years ago my daddy ask my momma on their first date to the Montgomery Rodeo--- romantic huh?! ha Now it's one of our little family traditions to go every year. We start off by going out to eat, then on to enjoy the rodeo, and finally we finish the trip off with some fresh, hot doughnuts from Krispy Kreme--YUM!!

This year we kicked off the trip with some Japanese cuisine at Shogun!We brought along Charlsie (KC's friend/my honorary little sis) for the trip.

Ryan even drove down to meet us and find out what the rodeo experience was all about!!


After our bellies were full we made our way to the rodeo and even had enough time to tour the livestock expo before the main event started. Let me tell ya, the "out doors" smell was strong, haha!! Bennett enjoyed it; he got to see lots of big cows and he even got to pet a few.


I couldn't resist getting a picture taken in front of the massive cattle!!
Look at how he is looking over our shoulders...a little scary huh?!



The precious Young family, ahh aren't they cute??


The rodeo was fun this year. The clown "Troy" was silly as usual and he swapped roles half way through to become "Wild Child" and he did his dare devil act by jumping over a truck and trailer on a dirty bike...scary but very cool! The best division was the bare back bucking broncos, the cowboys had some pretty impressive rides. The rest of the catergories (barrell riding, roping, calf wrestling, and even bull riding) were a little bit disappointing this year, but oh well. No matter what, I am already looking forward to next year!!

All this rodeoing wore this little cowboy out!! (Don't worry he woke up and changed into his pjs just in time for the doughnut run!!) Thank goodness for family traditions! :)
