Christmas. Fourth of July. Kids’ Rodeo. The days we really try to enjoy a holiday. We interrupt this crazy, busy summer to make the time to celebrate the local kids and sweat like crazy and drink a case of water and eat snow cones and ruin five lawn chairs and cheer and laugh and cringe….

Youth Rodeo
Dorothy, The Scarecrow, The Tin Girl, and the Lion appeared with their escorts at Ten Sleep’s Youth Rodeo today. A couple of fishermen landed some really large black fish. There was plenty of roping and riding, playing and general fun… The kids had a wonderful time… and received some wonderful prizes. Thanks to all the…
Let’s Rodeo
You might have Little League. Maybe youth football. Here in Ten Sleep, we have the Kids’ Rodeo! Geared towards ranch kids, or any kid that owns a horse and rides a bit for fun, this mini rodeo isn’t for those kids who really *compete* at rodeo, it’s just a fun playday. In 100˚ heat. (ok,…
Kids Love It
When you have seven grandchildren aged four and under… the Ten Sleep Kids’ Rodeo was the place to be today. Everyone was there… We had stick horse racers… and costumed superheroes (3rd place!) and flower fairies… (We had firemen too, but no pictures allowed….) We had dummy steer ropers… Quinlan just edged out Waylon… they…
Yeehaw
So… another long day, though very enjoyable and actually COOL. Yes, folks, I said, COOL. 99.9% of Kids’ Rodeo days have been unbearably HOT, dry, dusty, sweaty days, but not today! If you wanted Longmire Days photos, you’ll have to wait… and, yes, I know I still have questions to answer from the other day……
Next Year’s Rodeo
Back in the day… my kids attended Ten Sleep’s little kids’ rodeo. Held for just local kids, this rodeo was the first and only experience at being *in* a rodeo for most! I used to help a little bit in the arena, one time Really Overheating, as I recall… because next to the 4th of…
P.’s Parable
P. participated in the Kids’ Rodeo last weekend. Though she doesn’t have a horse of her own, she has access to horses through relatives. It takes a little effort to prepare and ride in the rodeo… and P. did well. P. is being raised by her aunt and uncle… they have really stepped up and…
Kids’ Rodeo Complete
I need to finish up my kids’ rodeo pictures… So tonight, here are both of the highlights… You lucky readers, you! First, the shirt-tail button race. (First, please notice the frozen ears on this horse… or the lack of ears on this horse because he was born on a cold and windy morning… whatever…) The…
Many Faces of Kids’ Rodeo
While I should be cleaning my house… I have company coming… I figured I better get this posted or it wouldn’t happen later! Kids’ Rodeo… synonymous with hottestdayinJuly/slowerthanmolasses/cuterthancute/whyinthe’elldowedothis? But boy! you end up with some cutie photos! Typical Grand Entry Posting of the Colors… until you notice the Wyoming flag bearer is kinda dressed “funny”……
Kids’ Rodeo
I did ambulance standby for the Ten Sleep Kids’ Rodeo today. I’ve helped off and on with this activity since my kids were little… read 15 years or so… I managed to acquire a few good photos… and a few funny stories… but I beg that you let me tell them tomorrow… The hour is…
