Well we did it we Rodeo'd and we had a blast....honestly I think all 4 of us would go back in a heart beat. We had 2 little ones sooo excited to see different things. Callen wanted to see the buckin bulls and Paisley wanted to see all the animals we asked her about except for the goats...not sure why but she alwasy answered no to the goats. Shockingly we got there early we parked right across the street and the strollers were the BEST decision we ever made ;)
Upon arrival Callen handed the ticket man our tickets and nicely let the ladies go 1st. We took a minute and explained to the kids what was where....there 1st choice of things to do was go into the tractor and kid area. It was great and not crowded one bit!! YIPPEEE for us...we well really they tumbled down hills, watched baby piggies just be born, petting zoo check, borden cows check ( and yes we sat down and discussed these are different then Popo's cows, hatchery area was FUN, and the gardening area was a blast--soon we will have sunflowerseeds growing in our neck of the woods we just hope they dont make there way to daddy's field because they will be gonners then ;) 
Oh this piggy made her mad when he went after her beloved boots-- so cute and FUNNY
After all the indoor excitement we headed out for some polka dots ( Callens favorite) ummmm you know Dip N Dots-- of course we quickly learned NO sharing and they each got their own...perfect Nilla for my little dude and rainbow for sassy just like her colorful personality.
Up next per Callens request face painting-- we walked through the entire carnival and never once did either ask to ride ride...not sure if that is a good thing or a bad but you wouldnt hear us complain. The we foudn ti face painting-- and I just knew my little man was gonna be all talk and change his mind.. WRONG he hoped in that chair and quickly let her know he wanted batman....following right in his footsteps was Sassy ( and yes that is her new nickname at home and school) and she too shcoked me butterfly choosen and she LOVED it soo much that she made a point to show every stranger in Houston-- see Paisley never meets a stranger NEVER... up next Callen AGAIN-- yep he wasnt done the other side of his face was empty so a quick snake later and we were out of there.
After all the FUN adventures we decided to get in early get our seats which were incredible a big THANK YOU to well you know who you are!! we watched bull riding, roping, calf chasing...you name it we watched it. And before the night was over we even were sitting a row away from Tim McGraw-- had we not had sleeping angels in out hands we would have stood up and squezzed into the crowd for our handshake but figured little ones safety is sooo much more important.
So rodeo 2011 you were great,,we were treated like royalty and we are ever so blessed for the experience!!
