RODEO!!

One of our favorite activities is going to the GA High School Rodeo Association rodeos. Saturday was the final rodeo of the regular season so we drove over to Forsyth to watch the show. They always start out with a tribute to the troops and the American flag. Followed by a prayer and the singing of the National Anthem by one of the high school kids. The picture above was taken just before the anthem was sung. Brandon took his hat off and put it across his chest on his own and he was shocked that other kids weren't doing the same. And I was shocked that the kids parents didn't remind them.

After the opening ceremonies, the true events start. We didn't know any of the kids that were riding but it didn't matter anyway. We cheered for them all. They compete in every thing from bull riding to barrel racing. Brandon always enjoys the clown and like always made friends with him. He will tell you that the clown's name is really John. We stayed for the whole show, right down to the bull riders which always go last. Two fellas even made it to the 8 second buzzer.
