Friday's Favorite Family Fotos!

Why can't we have the energy of our grandkids?
Here is my granddaughter, Madisyn,last Saturday.
Just a normal day for her!
Madisyn begins her Saturday with a soccer game!

Besides being so darn cute, she is
a very good soccer player!

She scored three goals and
made numerous steals.

Madisyn is saying...
"I did good! We won!"

And what did little brother, Tango,
do during the soccer game?
Tango rearranged the soccer field, of course!


What would you do after playing a soccer game?
I think a nap would be in order.
But Madisyn said...
"Oh, no, Grammy! I'm gonna go mutton bustin'!"
Are you familiar with mutton bustin'?
It is an event held for kids at rodeos...

The idea is to ride a sheep bareback
for a designated period of time...

But here is what usually happens...


Or this!

So Madisyn goes home
and puts on her cowgirl outfit...

She puts her scary looking headgear on...


and her official number vest!

Doesn't she look tiny in the rodeo arena
with the rodeo clowns and cowboys?
Earlier in the week, Madisyn had tried out with
150 other kids to compete in the contest.
She made the final cut and got to
compete in the Mutton Bustin' Finals!
However, the sheep didn't cooperate in the final round,
so she is getting a hug from Daddy!
And what did little brother, Tango,
do during the rodeo?
Tango rode Daddy bareback, of course!

Hope you enjoyed my grandkids'
typical, busy, hectic, normal Saturday!
