Yeeeee Haaaaaaw!!!!

Howdy there! I am in cowgirl mode after going to the rodeo this past Friday. To be honest, I was not expecting much, especially for things for Guen to do, but boy was I wrong. I had a great time and Guen had an even better time at her first rodeo. My friend Sarah and her daughter Kate, Guen and myself went in the morning. We parked by Reliant Park, loaded up the girls, and took the tram into the rodeo. We did not go to watch the actual rodeo but got Reliant Park Admission Tickets that allows entrance to the Show, including the carnival, Reliant Arena for horse show events, and Reliant Center for Capital One Bank AGVENTURE, livestock show, shopping and food exhibits. Our first stop was looking at all the cows. It was so much fun to watch Guen point to everything and say "moo" to the cows. Other stops included: the petting zoo, watching the mutton bustin, going through Fun on the Farm, seeing the birthing center and all the babies animals at the birthing center, playing on the tractors, eating a fried snickers bar and bbq and of course seeing all the other animals. Definitely going back next year because we did not even do half of it. But after being there for almost 4 hours with a 1 year old and a 8 month old, we had to go home for naps. I worked all weekend so no other adventures besides the rodeo on Friday. Here are some fun pics:
