Rodeo

This past Saturday we decided to suprise Bethany and go to a rodeo. She LOVES going to them, watching them on TV, and pretending that her Daddy is a bucking horse and riding in them. She wants to try mutton busting, and she already has big plans to be a barrel racer. We finally got our horses home and she is anxiously awaiting her Daddy to get the fence finished at the house so they can be right across the driveway.

Here are some of the pictures from this weekend..........

Part of the grand entery at the Pahuska, OK rodeo.

Boots watching one of the events.

All Cody cared about was his milk, cherrios and trying to get into the purse of the girl behind us!

Some team roping.

Daddy and Boots.

This isn't a very good video, but it was Boots' favorite!!

Boots has been busy!!

The last few weeks have been BIG for Boots!! I found out that they were having beginner swimming lessons in Caney. Caney is about 15 miles from us, so it was a bit of a drive, but the lessons were only 5 bucks (as Bethany would say). I decided that if the only thing she got out of the 2 weeks of lessons was to be able to go under the water, it was worth it. And worth it, it was!!

This was her first day. She was a little nervous to jump in.

They are blowing bubbles.

Down she goes!

And up she comes!!

The day after swimming lessons were over, we headed back home because Jeremy's cousin, Alyssa, was getting married and Bethany got to be a flower girl. She was so excited. We've been talking about this wedding for a long time!

Bethany is a little bit shy when it comes to people she doesn't know, so we were a little nervous about her actually going down the aisle.....but, she did wonderful!

Practicing.

Our little Princess!

She did it!
