Rodeo Time

The Hyrum Star Spangled Rodeo has become a tradition for us since moving here.

 It is a fun rodeo and we always have a good time together. I just wish the rodeo talent was a little better. This year only a couple of cowboys could ride for the full 8 seconds. The barrel racers were pretty good though and that is my favorite anyway.

This year Emily's best friend Ayzleigh was the rodeo princess for Hyrum. Emily thought it was so cool that she knew the princess and it was fun to cheer for Ayzleigh every time we saw her.

Before the rodeo started, I took the kids down to the rodeo grounds to see the animals.

This is a tradition we started in St. George during the Dixie Roundup Rodeo so it is great that we can continue it up here as well. The kids absolutely loved seeing the animals.  Charlotte mooed and baaed at everything she saw. Her favorite I think was the sheep because they were not as scary as the cows. Every time the cows mooed at her she would get scared. The horses were also a favorite.

We love the rodeo and look forward to it every year.
