Cowboy Jayden and Cowgirl Eden!
We went to the Eagle Rodeo with Kaycee and Erik and Kaycee's family. The Greenwoods were so very nice to us. It was really fun to get to know them better.
That's the McFarland gang with Bonnie, Jenna and her boyfriend behind us!
Erica, Kaycee's sister, is the Echappa 2010 Queen! She and her group performed at the rodeo. This group of youth riders are really unique. They ride bareback and perform group manuvers.
She's commanding her horse, Rex, with the use of her voice and legs - no bridle or reins.
They also jumped several times with no hands on their horses!
It was really fun for us to see her perform! You're awesome, Erica!!!
Annie Oakley and Billy the Kid
Jayden and Carson are a riot together. Jayden loves his Uncle Carson!
Jenna rode in with a flag. She was very fast on her horse Pilot!
Jayden and Erica on Rex
Eden and Erica
This was Eden's first time on a full size horse! She didn't even wimper. She just said after climbing down, "Now, I want to ride the black one!"
Kaycee's Dad, Milt, must have heard Eden saying over and over that she wanted to ride the "white one"
(horse). So he offered to take Eden back to see Erica and Rex. Thank you, Milt and Erica, for allowing Eden the chance to sit on Rex. She has talked about it non-stop for two days! It was a really BIG deal for her!!!
She did, however get one more ride on a pony. This time she picked the smallest pony.
So glad that you guys could spend my Birthday weekend with us and come to the Rodeo to support my sisters!!! LOVE YOU GUYS AND MISS YOU!!!
