Memorial Day weekend was Tuff N Nuff rodeo in Dayton. There was a rodeo Saturday, Sunday and Monday. We went Saturday and Monday. Someone took some awesome shots and posted them on facebook for us. Very cool. On Monday Jayden's friend Makenna decided to start running the rodeo series too. She had her boyfriend along too. The two of them are attached at the hip. I don't like to see girls act like they are married to their boyfriend at such a young age. I feel bad for Jayden as once again, she is the third wheel. I wish Jayden could just enjoy having a good friend. It doesn't bother her like it does me, she has a good attitude about everything. The ground was pretty wet and sloppy from recent rain. Jadyen ran Tex and he runs so fast to that first barrel that he doesnt rate and makes a wide turn. He still did well and placed. Later Alex S. rode a bull. This was only his second time riding and he rode so well. He did an amazing job hanging on with each buck and twist. I thought he rode better than a lot of very experienced bull riders. Then it happened. Alex hit the ground and the bulls back end swung around and landed on Alex. He broke his arm. At the time it happened nobody knew this and the EMT parents that looked at Alex were sure it was dislocated. They decided to try and relocate his shoulder. I cannot imagine!! The poor kid was in pain and then they yanked his arm. Later that day Michelle showed me the x-ray of Alex's arm. It looked so bad and painful. Poor guy,
When we got home, the boys played for a long time with the new puppy. They had so much fun running and rolling in the grass with the pup. He would chase them and lick their faces.
