Rodeo Time!
The girls drew out for Mutton Bustin this year at the fair!
I am pretty sure I was way more excited for them than they were. They practiced on the goats all week, and Fair time came!
Waiting to mutton bust!
Emma was so tired! She mentioned a few times that she didn't want to ride the sheep because she was so tired. I just told her we would see how she felt when it was time!
When it was go time, she wanted to go...kinda...I was actually pretty sure she wouldn't do it, especially when the first 4 boys got on and fell off right out of the gate. She did it though!
Even though a few tears were shed, she did it! she scored and 81! she held on and slide to a stop in the dirt!
Cranes had come to watch and Trevor had told her that if she would hold on and ride he would get her a popsicle! As soon as I saw her after the ride she said "did Trevor see me? Because I couldn't see him!" I think she was worried about making sure she got that treat!
When I asked her if she would do it again, she said "No way! Never again when I am 4...but I will do it when I am 5! We will see what next year brings!
They were mighty happy with their trophies!
Mara loved it! She rode the longest of all of them, and took second!Way to go for a first timer!
Check out those new boots!
By the end of the rodeo, Emma was done for! She fell asleep on Trevor's shoulders! Sound asleep!
