Wednesday at the Rodeo

Wednesday at the Rodeo

Wednesday we donned our cowboy boots and hats and headed to the Houston rodeo. This was nothing like the one in Dallas. It was held at the Houston Texans stadium and was pretty amazing. They had bronco riding, bull riding, cow lassoing and steer wrestling where they chase down a steer, jump off their horse and try and wrestle a steer to the ground. Oh and how could I forget the mutton busting. They had kids 5 and 6 years old trying to ride a runaway sheep, lol. That may have been one of the highlights. They ended the rodeo by setting a bunch of calfs loose for a bunch of kids to try and catch them and pull them back to the center of the stadium. Anyone able to do so won that calf and would bring it back to show it the following year.

There was also had a fair with a bunch of rides and games so Cadence was in heaven. She also got to ride a pony. Was a long day but fun was had by all. If you’ve never seen a professional rodeo, as I haven’t, check out the videos at the end. Pretty wild.
