Roller-Rodeo

Matt found a Rodeo in Van Wert (the town closest too us).  They hold it every weekend and it's actually just bull riding, not a full rodeo.  We tried to go before, but it was too crowded.  This time we arrived early and it was still PACKED.  I call it the "roller-rodeo" because it's held in an old roller skating rink! 

They really crammed the people in... we ended up on the ground (yes, in the dirt), right next to the fence!  Front row!  (but on the ground)  Caylee LOVED the being there... she clapped and danced to the music, but mostly LOVED playing in the dirt :)  Micah hung out with me in the sling... I took him out once, but he wasn't happy about that at all.  

They had 65 bull riders there, so they went quickly through the rides (after a very long, but very exciting introduction to the evening).  We didn't stay for all the riders, but saw enough.  Caylee "moo-ed" every time we showed her the bulls and she clapped every time the crowd clapped (for good riders).  It was definitely a fun night and we'll go back in the future, just never again with Micah so young-- maybe next year!

Dirt, Dirt and more Dirt... she even tried to give the people around us dirt... such a nice sharing girl!

Would much rather be cozy in the sling
