Stock Show Fun

We it is that time of year again! The rodeo is back. I was really excited to go this year because Seth is old enough to really watch and get excited to see the animals. Mikayla is excited for the cotton candy! This year we went with Loren, Amanda, Maria, Luis, Grandma Jenni, Papa Paul, Uncle Brandon and our friend Jon. The kids had a great time. They got to pet cows, pigs, goats, rabbits, horses, and chickens. Seth was so excited. Mikayla tried talking to all of them- and one time a Sheep answered back and she thought that was the coolest thing ever. For the rest of the night she would say "Mama did you hear that sheep? He said Baa Baa just like me" Seth also learned some new things- He now says "Baa Baa" when you ask him what a sheep says and he says "Horse". It is amazing how fast they can catch onto things when they are really excited about it.


Of course Mikayla got her cotton candy, and popcorn, and gummy worms, and so much junk it was amazing that she slept that night! Grandma and Papa spoiled her rotten! She also got a little Cat that she named Popo. He came in a little cage too. She still is playing with him and asking him about the animals. Seth thinks it is a sheep and just says "baa baa"!
Luckily No Cowboys were hurt really bad! Only one was kicked in the head and he got up and walked back to safety. The girls kicked but in the mutton busting! they all held on for life, but one little boy set a new record with 97points. It was really cute. I think Seth would be great at it. We will just have to tell him it is like riding a motorcycle!
We had a really good time and can't wait for it to come back next year!
