My friend told us about this fun little rodeo in Kissimmee Florida (about 30 minutes away) and we decided to try it out and we were not disappointed! The Osceola County Fair was going on too and so the kids got to ride some rides, eat fair food, and watch a very fun rodeo with our good friends the Hillis family! What a fun night! Gavin was in awe of all the horses and sat very still and mesmerized by the bull riding! It's only about twice a year we get to pull out the cowboy hats, boots, and Matt's wranglers :)
Luke took this picture! I am very proud of his photography skills!
Luke got to go and chase the calves and try to pull the ribbon from their tale...he said he got to touch a calf but that is the closest he got.

Gavin was finally big enough for one of the rides...he kept begging all night for "his turn", but he was too small for all of them. Finally the motorcycles saved the night for him :)
We got to see Miss Rodeo Utah - Renae Cowley, who also happens to be Matt's cousin's cousin...or his Aunt Janet's niece :) (whichever is easier to make the connection)

Such fun! Gavin really does love horses, doesn't he? When I was there he would never let me go down the stairway without him stopping to point out the horse picture! Love you all in your cowboy duds! And how fun you got to see Renae. How did you manage that? Did you realize the connection before hand, or after talking to her? Let me know. She is a beautiful girl!
You are the cutest little cow-family that I have ever seen. You could fit in nicely at the ranch. Glad you guys had fun.
