1st Annual Reed Rodeo

We had our First Annual Reed Rodeo on April 23, the day before Easter.  We started the day off with a yummy breakfast.  And then the festivities began.  We had a whole line up of fun stuff to do.  

Dummy Roping
3 Legged Race
Wheelbarrow Race
Water Balloon Toss
Egg Toss
Rawhide Race 
and the Chicken Chase to name a few.

Everyone had so much fun and the weather was perfect!  After the morning events, we had lunch and then a Easter Egg hunt.  The whole day was so much fun and we are glad that Aunt Sharla's family joined in on all the fun!

Carson, Briley, Caleb and Devin reading the line up of events.

Ashton broke his arm the week before and was sad he couldn't participate in everything.

Lacey loved that little stick horse!

But it is kind of hard to ride it the right way, but a whole lot easier to carry it!

What a cute line up of a bunch a little cowgirls!

Ashton was able to do the dummy roping.

He has it down pretty good...

And caught the steer on the first throw!

Off to the Wheelbarrow racing...

You had to run to the other side of the field and back to the other side.

Lacey had to go and get her brother's hat that flew off in the race.

On your mark, get set, GOOOO!
The funnest part was watching the adults do the Wheelbarrow race!  We were all laughing so hard!  The sisters pushed the brothers in the wheelbarrow.  (On a side note, James will attempt to reach his hand out of the wheelbarrow and grab the person next to him to pull them over!)  We also had husbands and wives compete!  We can't wait to do it again next year!
