Rodeo Weekend!

We knew the Rodeo was coming & we were anxiously waiting for it. The kids love animals and were excited to see them. Arek had volunteered to compete in the Steer Wrestling Competition with two other guys from his company. We thought he would be competing on Friday night so we ended up going to the Rodeo both days. Friday night was a lot of fun. MaKenzie and Arek ended up joining the "Calf Wrestling Competition" for kids. They had to chase calves around and try to get the ribbon off their tails. There were 3 calves vs. 100+ kids. haha. So they just had fun running around trying to catch them. MaKenzie got a ribbon for participating and was very proud! I wish it wasn't so dark so I could have gotten better pictures or a video! We had a great night watching all of the competitions. We love the country scene & can't wait to be living in a small country town in Colorado in two years!!!!
Saturdays Rodeo was just as fun... minus the sun coming in and out & the rain coming and going. This time all four of us competed in the Calf Wrestling (Titan had been sleeping the night before so we just watched Daddy & Kenzie). We had a lot of fun trying to catch them, except this time there was like 200 kids & it ended fast. Still the kids thought it was awesome. Titan was so proud to be running around trying to catch them. They both got ribbons for participating that are now in their rooms, which they love. Arek and two of his friends from his company did the Steer Wrestling Competition. It was awesome to watch. All three of them did a great job. They were super fast and definitely were far ahead all three of the other teams. They won & we all couldn't have been more proud. I have a video that I am posting on facebook, so definitely check it out!!!!

The Rodeos were fun, we had great time as a family & are now hoping to own our own little farm, with horses in Colorado some day :) It's a dream, but it would be nice! ♥
