The Rodeo is in town this month and what better way to get into the spirit than having a Hoe Down at my son's Elementary school.
Living in Amarillo for almost 3 1/2 years (before coming here), we met and saw quite a lot of cowboys and attended the Rodeo every year. Quite a 180 from growing up and living in Southern California for 30 some years.
But you know what? I don't mind that my boys are being raised with Southern manners and charm. I quite like it!!! A lot!!! Charm and manners weren't something you experienced much in Cali. So if my boys say y'all and heehaw, I'm quite alright with it.
These photos were taken the morning before my son headed to school for his first Kindergarten Hoe Down. His cute little cowboy outfit was courtesy our neighbor down the street.
