It's the oldest local rodeo, and we signed up Owen to do Mutton Bustin', too. For those that don't know, mutton bustin' is where 7-and-unders hop on a sheep and try to hold on (just to the wool!) as long as possible. I think Owen lasted 1.5 seconds, but he had fun, got a belt buckle, and said he'd do it again next year! (His friend Carson did great and got a huge 2nd place trophy!) Here's Owen's ride - don't blink!
Mutton bustin' was considered part of the pre-show. This double-amputee paratrooper flew in with a giant flag to get the rodeo started. Pretty impressive!
There were rodeo clowns, bucking bulls, lassos, and barrel races. Lots of fun stuff to witness. It was a long night, especially without naps, but the kids made it through the whole thing. Though they both passed out in the 10-minute drive home.
