It's Rodeo Time!!

This year we didn't make it to the rodeo itself due to sickness, homework, and more homework.  Instead we went to the Rodeo Parade on Saturday.  It was a nice afternoon to be outside but it did get a little warm.  When is it going to start was asked multiple times.

 Patiently waiting...we can see them getting into line, but not moving.  Finally @ 5:00 everything started moving and we were on our way.
 The Rodeo Clown and the only horse that wears pants.
 What would a parade be without the candy.  This year instead of throwing candy from the floats.  They had people walk along and threw it towards the kids.  Each one came home with bag full of candy, frisbee, and t-shirt.
Ryder was fascinated with all the horses and wagons.  I made me a little nostalgic for Grandpa Johnson and all the parades I rode in as a kid.

The parade ended with the usual fire trucks, ambulances, and police cars with sirens blaring.  Time for dinner at Pizza Factory with Dad.
