Rodeo
Yesterday I took the kids to the Auburn Rodeo. Here's Briana all decked out and ready to go. (By the way......check out the new haircut too!)
The first event we had to get there in time for was the Mutton Bustin'. OMG....it was hilarious. I asked Briana if she'd like to do it next year, and she said no way, it's too dangerous. Later when the kids were close to us and she saw that many of them were smaller than her, she thought maybe she could do it! They were just adorable! The National Anthem was pretty cool as well. They pulled a big boot out into the arena and as the song was played a horse and rider carrying an American flag came up out of the top!
It was a lot of fun. Briana's favorite event was the barrel racing! And I think Adam liked the shaved ice the best! : ) Hopefully we'll go again next year.
On our way home we had to pick up some tomato plants to put in the garden. We've finally gotten it fenced this year and are looking forward to some home grown veggies. We had to cut two trees down that were inside the garden area and Bret left one as a "table" for their salt shaker. They're planning to sit out there and eat tomatoes by the dozens!!! We've also incorporated the little chicks new home into it so they can be out there as well. We'll see how it goes. The plan is to keep deer and dogs out and chicks in. We'll see if we're successful. Here are a few pics as we were working on the garden.
