Bull Riding Rodeo and Mutton Bustin’

April 3, 2011 By Christie

DSCF5245 The boys got to ride a sheep for the first time at a Rodeo!  Carson was pretty sure he was going to burst with excitement.  Devon was excited, only very reserved as well. I thought he was crying when they put him on the sheep, but Dillon said he was just really REALLY serious and wanted Dillon to help him (which is quite common with mutton busting).

After they got done, Carson sat down and was thinking for a while and said, “Wait, are we coming here every night?”  I said no, and he said, “Wait…are we in training?”  Oh boy, Grandpa Hurst would LOVE to hear that!  He’d make them cowboys quicker than anyone if the boys showed interest!!!  He was actually judging that night, and Sheila was at the announcers table plugging Dillon’s CD :).  Which is why we got into the rodeo for free (yea!!!).  DSCF5218DSCF5220DSCF5221 Bailey started out really happy and excited for the bulls, only to be terrified because they unnecessarily blasted the music each time someone rode a bull.  And I mean BLASTED.  It was SO loud. Finally, about half way through they stopped turning the music so loud and she began to enjoy herself again.  The boys plugged their ears the first half, as well.  It was really loud.

Oh, I mean Devon.  Blah.  Why do people do that?  They thought they were famous having their names called out for everyone though!DSCF5235DSCF5240 See?  She’s happy.  It might have a little to do with her mouth stuffed full of twizzlers.

    Wow! Brave boys! But I guess since mine go screaming when a dog goes near them, just the fact that they would touch a sheep is brave for me. :) And cute that you're making those shirts, you're really going to have to tell me about that.

Memorable Moments June 2015

~Ruby says "Thank You" when you give her anything. Except it's more like "Day Oooo." I love it. She's also trying harder to say please (or Peeeeze) for things she wants. What a polite little girl :).

~Yesterday Bailey came down with the Clone Trooper costume on, which is 4 sizes too big I'm pretty sure, and her bull horns on. It was awesome. And sums up this girl pretty darn well.

~Carson told us that he was the laughing stock of Primary on Sunday. He meant to say the Class Clown :).

~Devon's so funny these days. If you catch him doing something he shouldn't be, he gets an innocent little smile and then starts rolling his eyes everywhere except looking at you. :)
