Pre-K Rodeo!

Today Levi's school put on what they called a "Pre-K Rodeo." Over the past two weeks they have been discussing all things farm, cowboy and rodeo in class and today all the kids dressed up in their best weastern wear. Levi wore his beloved boots, a dilapidated dress-up up hat and a borrowed cowboy belt with a flashy belt buckle. He was thrilled with his ensemble and pranced around the house before leaving for school. At the end of the day they all headed to the gym for the rodeo. The kids were split into groups and participated in cattle roping, barrel riding, tortilla toss and bandana tag. All the kids were so cute in their cowboy/cowgirl get up and enthusiastically cheered each other on in each event. It was so fun to watch all those precious excited faces and listen to their sweet little voices chant and yell for their classmates! Levi had a blast and was a little sad when it was over. I was very pleased with how well he handled all the events because he can be a bit overly competitive and is often a sore loser. Not today! I was sure proud of my little buckaroo!

Excited for his Rodeo! Later he ditched this sad hat for "a better school hat"

trying (unsuccessfully) to Rope some "cattle"

"Barrel" racing...he was the only one to sprint, and loved it!
