First Trip to the Houston Rodeo

James and John had their first trip to the Houston Rodeo (actual rodeo events, not just the carnival and educational sections) this past Thursday. Brian's co-worker wasn't using her two tickets so we decided last minute to take them along to the Brad Paisley concert. James sat with Brian in our original seats and John and I sat in the two extra seats. James had an absolute blast since all they have been talking about the past several weeks at school is cowboys and rodeos. John was definitely entertained and had a great time trying to find the horses, cows and bulls down on the arena floor. Once the bull riding was finished the couple next to John and I left for the evening so I called Brian to come over and join us. Right about that time John passed out (it was getting close to 9 pm) but James managed to stay awake for the calf scramble, barrel racing and mutton bustin'. He even stayed awake during the portion of the concert we stayed for. We called it quits around 10 as we knew we had a long walk back to the car and a longer drive home. All in all, we're very proud of how well the boys did being out so late and in such a crowded place. I forgot the camera and only snapped one photo with my phone. I'll have to figure out how to get it uploaded soon.
