Well, it's official ... I love the rodeo. For starters, my mom and dad took us to Gunnies Western Wear to get Miles ready for the big night. Here's what we came up with.
Oh, so darling. And, he adores his boots. He actually wore them to his first trip to the dentist yesterday (which he handled like a rock star, by the way ... that is, assuming rock stars are great at their dental appts)
I've never been to a rodeo before and I'm completely hooked. I don't know, there's something in me that always wants to wear a cowboy hat. No, seriously, I love them. So, it was FAB to finally cut loose and pretend I was a cowgirl. And the rodeo itself? So funny. Yes, yes, poor animals. But, the entertainment value far outweighed any animal rights notions I have.
Mutton Bustin?
check.
Wild Cow Milking?
check.
Barrel Racing?
you betcha.
They even herded a couple buffalo on top of a semi truck for a little half time entertainment.
The only thing that could have made the night better would be if we were with Scottie. Thank you, sweetheart, for all your love and hard work. I (we) miss you!

Oh my, he is such a ham! We will get you back to Berkeley and get you back to your granola self:)) Meanwhile, we are heading to the rodeo next week here. My first one...sounds brutal...where is PETA when all these events take place!
Lulu loves the dentist pic the best. She can't wait to go to the dentist herself I guess.
I second... rodeos are the best. My sister and her fam do the cash cow and muttin bustin in the Pleasant Grove rodeo every year, and it is such a blast. Plus, you rock that hat!!!
