Junior Ranch Rodeo

We are missing Jolie, but the rest are Julia, Cimmarron, Katilyn, and Shaleigh

Well this was interesting to say the least. During our picnic celebration we they had a Junior Ranch Rodeo at the square. We put a team together of 4 little girls: Shaleigh, Cimmarron, Katilyn, and Jolie. They all wore red shirts and was called the Cowgirl Divas. They were so much fun to watch and let me tell you they tackled every obstacle put in front of them. They had the cow milking: which is where you pull a chow across the line and milk them and run with the milk to the finish line; they had the cow doctoring: that is where you pull a cow across the finish line and put a mark on it; the cow branding: which is where you pull two cows across the line and brand them; and finally they had the barrel races. To say the least the girls were just a little to small to pull those wooden cutouts across the dirt, but to give them credit they did every event and got it accomplished. We were so proud of them even though they didn't win. That's okay with us they had a blast running around the corral and doing the events.
