Rodeo

This weekend Grayson went to his first rodeo!  Here on base there was the college rodeo.  Grandma and Grandpa Sand were in town too!  Grayson noticed the horses, but didn't pay much attention to what was going on.  He loved to just play in the dirt.  He's such a boy! :)  Before the rodeo started they had kids activities and one was getting to ride a horse.  We figured Grayson wouldn't really ride it, but we wanted a picture so we waited in line to set him on the horse.  He had pet a horse before and liked it.  Sitting ON the horse was a different story as you can see in the pictures below.  After Daddy took him off he was much happier and would pet the horse. 



We left and went home for a little while so Grayson could take a nap since we discovered the rodeo events didn't start for a couple hours.  It was a wonderful sunny day with a slight breeze.  Perfect for sitting in the sun! :)


Grayson even got his own foam cowboy hat at the rodeo.  Of course he wouldn't keep it on, but I managed to get a picture with it on before he pulled it off again.  Even Daddy wore his hat!  Mommy made him for a picture and then he pulled it off of course!  Grandpa Sand ended up wearing his hat to keep the sun out of his eyes most of the time.

When Grayson wasn't eating... which is all the time these days!... or trying to get Grandpa's sunglasses you would find him playing in the dirt.  He definitely got a bath that night!
