Rodeo

My girls are just in love with animals. No not the small type but the large ones, especially horses. Em loves them so much she wants to be called "Katie" and her horse is "Flicka". This is one of her favorite movies. El says she is "Faith" and her horse is "Raxie". Their "horses" are their bikes. We usually bike ride through the neighborhood during the week when it is pretty and Em will say "Hi Yah, giddy up Flicka". The other day when we were outside I had an idea to put Clorox bleach bottles out in a triangle so they could barrel race. They thought that was so much fun!
With all that said, I try to look for way to keep them entertained and get to see the real thing. So we headed out to our local college rodeo. The girls just LOVED it!! They had broncs (sp?), saddle broncs, calf roping, steer wrestling, Goat tying (for the girls), barrel racing, and bull riding. They were in heaven and enjoyed it very much. We got up a few times to go look at the horses in the back stalls. All in all it was a great night.
