I have to admit, I have a really hard time watching my children grow up. I’m positive that I’m waayyy overprotective at times, however, I just can’t help it. Thankfully, Willie is around to balance out my overprotectiveness, at least a little bit.
A few months ago, they built a rodeo arena within a mile of our home. Ever since then my husband has been dying to go. The kids were all pumped up and ready to go, so we attended last weekend.
I attempted to put my fears aside, when I found out that this (watch the video below) was one of the reasons we went!
That, my friends, was my 4 year old!!! Agh! Who knew they let kids do that?! In my freaked-out-mommy-state, I stopped filming before you could see his HUGE grin. He was ever so proud of himself, even though mommy was about to flip, and that is a finer thing!

We have mutton bustin’ here! My kids haven’t done it, but I have a cousin whose kids are “champions”.

That’s awesome! I had seriously never heard of it before, until about a year ago, and witnessed it for the first time ever last weekend. Couldn’t believe kids actually did that! Although, it was a lot of fun to watch, with my eyes half open.
