Ft. Worth Stockshow and Parade

We just had the best time, or atleast I did at the parade and rodeo with three out of four of our grandkids.  Next year Leighton we will have to take you along with us.  I think all of the little ones enjoyed it too and they were all little troopers and just little angels all day long even though I know they were tired by the end of the day.  I think PaPaw was the most tired of all after pulling them around in the wagon all day.  They got to play like they milked a cow, see the baby animal farm and walk thru the barns.  Kennedy wasn't having anything to do with those longhorns so that is why she was not in the wagon for the pictures.  The saw Elsie and her baby calf and we went to a working cow horse show and all had corn dogs for supper.  Now what a deal, $27.00 for all of us to get a corn dog and we had our own drinks.  They were pretty worn out but still had the energy to sing "Here we are singing in the kitchen" as loud as you could sing as we were leaving out of the stockgrounds.  It was so cute and just melted my heart.  As we got to the exit there were tunnels of lights so they had to run thru those and there were water fountains and I was afraid they were about t run thru those but they just ran around them.  They got in the car and I thought sure they would crash but lo and behold they made it home wide awake.  I could not have asked for any better day.  I hope you little ones enjoyed it as much as I did and I want you to know, it wasn't the parade or the stock show that I enjoyed, it was YOU!  I never heard so many oohs and awhs over you all....all day long.

This was the next morning at Kim and Scott's house, they were a little tired and grumpy that day so we made it a short day with lunch and headed home.  Thanks Kim and Scott for letting us stay the nights there.  The kiddo really enjoyed seeing each other and had fun together.  There was not a cross word out of any of them all day Saturday.  I have to say the were PERFECT!
