Dixie Round-up

Every year growing up my parents would make sure we made it to the Dixie Round-up. It was always so much fun. My dad would pop a big 'ol bag of popcorn and put TONS of butter in it!! So much that it would be seeping out the bottom of the 5 paper brown bags that he put it all in. Still to this day he makes for sure that his six kids don't forget about the rodeo. He has given up on the popcorn but we will never forget about it.
Aaron isn't so much a big fan of the rodeo. He doesn't find the joy in it that the rest of us do. However, he humors me and comes with-even if it is only for a half hour.

Taking pictures of Brayd posing before the rodeo

He thinks he's SO funny

We didn't take a picture with all of us together at the rodeo, but I did get everyone.

Grandma, Madison and cousin Lex

Porter with cousin Alan

Uncle Jason, Aunt Joanna and Ry-with baby Hailee-you can't see her but she sure is making her mommy a Big 'Ol Momma!! Love ya Jo!

Nice face Brayd! With his Aunt Christie and Uncle Moss.

When Aaron went to Texas like 4 years ago he brought Madison and Porter back cowgirl and cowboy outfits. So, as the years have gone by we have passed Porter's outfit down to the babies. Ryan wore it last year and Brayd wore it this year......That explains why only he is dressed up. No, it's not because he is our favorite.............

What a cute little man.

Just leaving the rodeo, 30 minutes after it started. My big baby on the left was the one that was tired. Listening to him may have been worse than a screaming child!
I love you Baby!

That last picture it way cute. It reminds me of the one Jo framed for Aaron's Birthday. I am glad Aaron is a sport and will at least come because it wouldn't be the same with out the Smith Family there, especially Brayden to drink all my water:)It's ok Moss wasn't mad, Brayden is still too cute to get mad at...well most the time:)
