Oakley Rodeo

We had a very low-key July 4th.  Our celebration was mostly festive-named food like Grand Ol' American Pancakes with Berries & Cream and Patriotic Burgers with Red, White & Blue Potato Salad and Flag Cake and an afternoon of card games.  In the evening we went to the Oakley Rodeo which was really fun.



The girls were ready to join PETA after seeing some of the calf-roping events, and they thought comments from the announcer like, "The only thing that would look better (than the cowboy) next to that steer would be a milkshake and fries" were totally inappropriate.  But we all marveled at the skills of the cowboys and cowgirls.

Overall it was a very patriotic day.  We're proud to be Americans.

My boys loved the rodeo- they keep asking to go to another one, no thoughts about PETA from our crew. Not sure the boys will ever go there - they just want to be out being cowboys!
