On the 3rd of July we had a kids rodeo and had fun messing around in the dirt! Stick horse races, chased a money calf and a goat! They had poles and barrels for the youngsters too!

With this old clay soil no matter how much ya water down the arena it takes 5 minutes till dust!

And back through em' we go! He was having a blast! We missed getting a picture of it, but when he finished he tipped his hat to the crowd!

If some joker would'a got Mom's horse's feet trimmed, she'd been mounted! :roll: If I'm not in trouble it isnt very long till I am! :cry:

Heading for home! It was a fun time for the kids! Next year we may start early and have a team branding and roping for us older kids!

Good for you H, kids need to have fun with their parents. Just wondering if you make a career out of fun or if it is just natural. :wink: :wink: :-)

I am pretty lucky to have my wife be my best friend and i think my kids hung the moon! We manage to spend a lot of time together and we love it! Life is way too short not to grin as much as ya can! What better way than with your family? :wink: :D When ya die, nobody remembers how much time ya spent working or not making memories. They remember the time ya had together! :wink:

Boy, did you hit the nail on the head. Just wish I had learned that philosophy 30 years ago.
Thanks H, looks like you had another good day. :D
 
Keep up the awesome parenting H. In a few years, when they can get themselves into the arena without help, you'll get the priviledged job of.....chauffeur, videographer, coach, etc. But it's alllllll worth it. :D
 
nice pics H, looks like a day well spent. those youth rodeos are more fun than a person would think. i have as much fun at those as i did when i was rodeoing, k....well almost :wink:
