Team Penning, Trailor Loading, Wild Cow Milking, Branding, and Team Roping are some of the highlights to our day yesterday.
I love rodeos in the spring and summer time. Playdays with the kids and Ranch Rodeos with Tadd. Saturday Tadd competed in the annual Mertzon Ranch Rodeo. For the past 3 years we have gone to this and enjoyed the events and re- uniting with our friends from ranch country.
Although no prizes were brought home this year, I do have to say Tadd was the star of the show with his outstanding roping skills! He kicked butt roping! During the Team Penning he pinned what was required in the rule book in 32 seconds! They won 2nd place in that category.
Mine and the girls all time favorite event to watch is the Wild Cow milking. The cowboys have to rope the cow, two of them hold her by the head and tail while the other milks the cow into a beer bottle. They did a great job this year. Tadd did the roping, thank goodness because last year he milked and milked with all his might and made it to the judge with milk all over his hands but not a single drop in the beer bottle.
