Katy Rodeo

The Katy Rodeo was this past weekend. I'm sure that doesn't mean a whole lot to many of you, but for Christopher it meant that he could enter his first rodeo event....The Stick Horse Race. Let me mention that we have never seen a stick horse race the size of Friday night's. Katy and I have been to many Katy Rodeo's, but this was by far the largest and the longest. Usually, there are about 20 kids racing 15 - 20 yards. This night there were at least 50+ riders and they had to go about half the distance of the rodeo arena. CRG barely made it to the starting line when they said "Go!" Needless to say, he didn't come in last! He was definitely one of the younger competitors in the event. Next year, I have a feeling he'll be ready to run!
Saturday morning, we took CRG to the Katy Rodeo Parade. He enjoyed watching all the horses and firetrucks that came by, but especially liked the idea that people were throwing CANDY at him! It was a windy morning, so we had a bundled and tired little guy by the time the parade was over.
