Yee Haw!!!

The Dixie Round-Up was this weekend. Neal was at the station, but I decided the kids needed the Rodeo experience. So we went down to the "real cowboy store" and picked out cowboy hats. They all wanted cowboy boots, but I was afraid they would wear them all the time, so they all got a hat! I have a deep seeded dislike for anything cowboy. It makes no sense. No offense to anyone. I blame it on a blind date with a cowboy that went horribly wrong. During the parade we hopped on the back of the Studebaker and rode through the parade waving at everyone.


Grant had to have this hat because it matched his shirt!


Of course a pink hat!
Waving at everyone!

Cute girl!

We were leading the Engines. Neal is in one of those back there.

At the rodeo, Neal and a bunch of other people who serve the community , got to roll out a giant flag during the opening ceremonies. It was also a tribute to the 222 who served two different tours in Iraq. It was such a neat opening to the rodeo. It made me so proud to live in this community! We stayed and watched for about an hour and a half, but after taking Grant to the bathroom about four times and Landon and I discovering we were allergic to rodeos, we decided it was time to get home. It was a great day with my kids!

Yeehaw!! I wish I could have figured out which one Neal was. Did you ever figure it out?

Ahhh, that is so cute. I can't believe you let them buy cowboy hats. Are they going to mysteriously get lost in the middle of the night?
