Rodeo 2010

It's that time of year again! This year I actually got there early and went inside the livestock area where the shopping, petting zoo & birthing center are located. It was so fun! I'll spare you the pictures I took of the sheep who had JUST delivered a baby, but here are some other cute pics of baby animals!

We also saw some famous animals! Here's a prize winning cow, and Elsie, the Borden milk cow!



Later we headed into Reliant for the real show, the calf roping, bull riding, wagon races, and my fave- mutton bustin! We saw a wagon wheel shatter to pieces mid race, a kid make it all the way across the stadium on a sheep, and quite a few crazy bullrides!

After the show it was time for the concert of the night, and we were really excited! Brad Paisley was playing and he definitely did NOT disappoint! He put on such a great show, I really suggest going to see him if he plays in your town! He played some of my fave songs like:
Celebrity
Waitin on a Woman
Welcome to the Future
Ticks
Then
I'm Gonna miss her
I'm Still A Guy
That man can PLAY a guitar, and each one he played was prettier than the last! All of his guitars had a paisley pattern on them and some even had glitter! I tried to get a picture of each one, but there were 8 or 9, so here are my faves.
Teal glitter with paisley

Red and gold paisley

Black and gold paisley

Teal and cream paisley

After the show we stopped by The Hideout, aka the rodeo bar and nightlife hot spot, but left early since we had to work the next day. It was a great night and I look forward to my next rodeo adventure! Now I have a whole year to work on getting a country look together, hopefully with some cute cowgirl boots included!
