Livermore Rodeo {2012}

I die for the rodeo. It is one of my favorite parts of summer. The little boys loved getting into the action and were pretty intent on watching the races. And when they weren't watching the horses they were eating hot dogs, and running up and down the hill. Pretty much a party any way you looked at it. 

{Brayden, Evan, Weston, Lucas, Holden}

Weston taking a breather after he tumbled down the hill. It's rough being a boy. 

Me and my cowboys

Holden's had hotdogs before, all neatly cut up served with a fork. Tonight he got his first Rodeo dog, in a bun, all slathered with ketchup and mustard. The kid was in heaven.

I seriously love the rodeo and it's so fun that we can walk there every year. This year we tried out family fun night because we were sure Weston wouldn't last long. There are no shortage of families on family fun night, thats for sure!

He was happy walking around before the rodeo started

but not so happy in the stands.

We got Weston his first hot dog for a little peace and quiet. He might have thought it was the best thing in the entire world.

Holden missed out on all the cow roping' action and slept the entire time.

I think Cameron's favorite part of the night was climbing up and down the hill 50 times with Weston. Like I said... we didn't last long. Can't wait till next year!

Livermore Rodeo {2010}

Since we are in walking distance of the rodeo now... we had to check it out. We meant to make it to the parade at 10 am but pretty sure we were still sleeping. But the rodeo was a blast and seriously, you should see the some of the things they do.

Like wild cow milking? They seriously chase a cow, rope it, tackle it, and then milk it.

And the bull riding. The topic of discussion at the rodeo was "What makes the bulls buck?" I'll spare the details on what we thought it was. But bucking bulls make me want to rent 8 seconds... that is the best movie ever.

And my most favorite... talking and eating the gross {yet oh so delicious} greasy rodeo food.

I tried to snap my shirt... it was definitely not happening.

Ty and Michelle were seriously decked out. They were bummed because they couldn't find their matching belt buckles... they were serious too.

Look at April fitting in with her crimped hair... you go girl!

and April was in heaven with her funnel cake.

Can't wait till next year!
