Last Saturday we went out to a small town rodeo and had the best time. They had the traditional bull riding and barrel racing by real cowboys but also had a few events open to the public. Although we all wished Nana had dusted off her boots and done the horse race, Luke did get to try his hand at mutton bustin and to say he was proud would be quite an understatement! Just before his turn Michael asked if he was ready and he responded "my name is Luke Willard Merrick and I'm 3 years old." He was BIG stuff! Thankfully the rodeo clown never even let go of him, much to this mama's delight. :)
We will definitely be heading back out there soon, it was a blast and a great photo opportunity. Thanks to Aunt Lauren for taking all of these great pics.
