Austin Rodeo

Andy took the day off of work today and we headed down to the Austin Rodeo. We had a blast taking part in many of the activities they had for the kids. Emma was so excited to go and was getting very anxious in the car. They had just learned about rodeos in school, so she was thrilled to see some of what she learned. It was all she could talk about.

When we walked in, there was a vendor displaying swing sets. Of course Emma had to check it out.


Little Abby taking a ride in the Bjorn. She was such a trooper, especially since all the fun was during her normal nap time.

Checking out the Longhorns.

The first thing we did in the kids tent was the petting zoo. Emma loved the fence and the kangaroo they had. She kept trying to scale the fence.

The goats loved Emma's shirt. They kept trying to eat it.

Andy and Abby feeding the animals.

Emma had no interest in feeding the animals. She is like me when it comes to animals, they are cute from a distance but so not into them being in our bubble.

Emma's favorite activity was being a farmer for a day. She LOVED this activity. This is all she wanted to do.

Picking her apples.

Finding a potato.

Getting some eggs.

Me and my rodeo clown.

Lets not forget about Abby.

Another favorite for Emma was the walking on water activity. Emma climbed in this bubble and had a blast rolling around on the water.


She had slight difficulty standing.

Snuggling with my little lady.

Later in the day we headed over to my parent's house to wish my dad a happy birthday. We will celebrate with him later this weekend, since he taking in the fun at SXSW.
