Rodeo Austin

I continued the tradition of heading out to the Stockshow & Fairgrounds this year with the kids for the 4th year. Last year, we just barely snuck in a visit before Beau was born and he really enjoyed his first "rodeo" for the part that he was awake. We did all the usuals- petting zoo, pony rides, the pig race, went to see all the animals, a lasso show, carnival food & each kid got to do two "rides". It was the perfect day to just have fun with the kids after some pretty hard discipline days. 

 

This guy's personality was shining through & he had a lot of fun seeing the animals. 

 

 

Bailey (the doll) got to join us. : )

 

 

One fun story from the pig races was that Bailey got picked to represent our section of the crowd, which corresponded to a specific pig racing and Justin "Bieboar" the pig WON! She got this pig nose & some oreos as a prize!

One of their "rides" was the trampoline.

This was Blake's first time to try this and he easily mastered the back flip.

The big two also picked to ride the bull!

 

 

Blair got brave and tried this, but quickly got scared.

Both girls had a great time, but Blair didn't want to leave so no smiles for mommy.

And thank goodness this guy can still catch some z's on the go since we skipped his morning nap.
