Pioneer Days

Today we went to the fairgrounds to the Pioneer Days celebration. It was sooo hot! The rides were super cheap and the hot dogs and watermelon were free. Of course, the Cooper's couldn't pass up some freebies.

We started off with letting Brielle get her face painted. She loved every minute of it. I swear she didn't move a muscle.
Then we headed to the arena to wait for Wyatt to do some Mutton Bustin'

While we were waiting, the motocross riders were warming up. Here you can see Wyatt screaming at them to go FASTER! This kid seeks a thrill. He especially loves anything with wheels and an engine.

This poor rider ended up being taken out in an ambulance. He went off his jump wrong and jumped off his bike to land on the other side of the hill. It was terrible to watch. I hope he is okay.

Thinking she is hot stuff with her "makeup" on.



Here is Wyatt's Mutton Bustin event. He was soooo excited. He'd been talking about it for days. This morning, he even planned out what he was going to wear. He HAD to wear a shirt that would show off his muscles so he could hold on to his sheep tightly.

He held on so good until the sheep decided to roll over on top of him. He was a little freaked out but thinks it is cool now.

He made Dad proud.

Here he is, post ride.

His blue ribbon. We are proud of our little Mutton Buster!

Man would we have loved to watch Wyatt! I remember talking about how fun it would be when he could do that back in good old P-Town! He is growing up too fast. I love that he wanted to wear a shirt that shows off his muscles. What a little Brett. Brielle looks beautiful with her face painted and what a fun day!
