Rodeo

Saturday night our new ward, Naples 1st ward had a ward party. It was a dinner and then a rodeo. It was so much fun. We ate dinner at the Naples park and then walked to Dean Baker's land for the rodeo. It was such a fun night for the kids and very entertaining for us adults. First they did sack races.

They did every event by ages. Jaxson was in the 1-5 year old group. When they got to 15 year old gruop they opened it up to anyone and good old Brett always gave it a try. Here is Brett sack racing. He took second he was so close to taking first
They had hay steer out and ropes for the kids to play with . Jaxson just loved sitting on it and grabbing the horns.
They had a chicken chase. Jaxson wasn't into chasing the chicken put loved petting the ones that had been caught.
They did other activities like barrel races (both Jaxson and Brett participated), sheep riding, and a team contest with tying up 3 legs of a goat. Fun night!
