First Rodeo

A couple of weeks ago we went to a Junior Rodeo in Nephi. Although it is my children's thousandth rodeo, it was the first rodeo for my nephews Cole and Ty.

It was so much fun to watch them start. Cole did so well controlling his horse Jane. You can tell by the look on his face that he took it so seriously. The award was just a dollar but it was big time competition to him.

The funny story was Ty. The second day before he went to go in his boots were loose and falling off. So he did not have to go out in the arena to get them his dad took off his boots before he went in the arena.

As you can see in the picture Ty was upset. He tucked his feet up towards the saddle and during the whole ride all he could do was say he wanted his boots. You can see he was totally looking towards the gate and not paying attention to his ride.

That's great that the rodeos are such a family event... and that the kids take such pride in what they do there. Kudos.
