Rodeo

Did you know that here in St Cloud, the kids in school dont get off for Presidents Day, but they get the Friday before off for Rodeo Day? Thats right! Good ol St Cloud gives the kids the day off to go to the fair and the Rodeo. (this is also the town that when Bryan was a kid, they got the day off of school for the opening of Walmart!!) So, we did just that...went to the fair and Rodeo...well, we did on Saturday. We had taken the kids last year and they liked it so much, we did it again this year. It was not as good as last year. Maybe because the girls were so tired from fighting the flu all week, they just did not enjoy it as much. Maddie and Chloe were so tired, they were fighting and crying about what seemed like everything. Chloe was getting mad that she could not go down with the animals. Hana was good, as usual. They enjoyed most of the stuff, but they did not get overly excited like last year. It was nice being out as a family, though! Here are a ton of pics from the Rodeo.They had monkeys come out on little dogs wrangling the goats!Hana and Maddison still like the barrel racing the best. They always cheer so loud for these girls!The bucking broncos...these guys are insane.The rodeo clown this year was not as good as last year. He didnt do as much as the other one. He was funny when he came out in the fat suit, but other than that, he didnt do a whole lot.I dont know if you can see this real well, but the bull is actually on top of the rider.
