The Cowboy Kid

I have a little cowboy at my house.  His name is Lane.  Everyday he wears cowboy boots, jeans, a belt,  plaid shirt, and his cowboy hat. 

Lane had the privilege of going out to Spring City to Andy's sister's house for a day.  If you are a cowboy, this is the house you want to visit.  Aunt TaKesha showed him a good cowboy time.  He got to ride a REAL Shetland pony!  He was in heaven!

I love this picture.  Lane is leading his cousin Andee around on the pony.  I can just tell that he feels like a totally awesome dude!  

Then it was Lane's turn to ride....one handed and all!

 My dad calls him "Bronco Lane."  He really thinks he is going to ride in a rodeo someday.  As his mother, I am not too excited about that.  I think I will just keep him at the "Mutton Bustin" level.   

He also plays rodeo out in the yard.  There is barrel racing, hide races, bronc riding, and Sally's favorite --- steer wrestling.  Sally is the steer!  It was snowing this day at the rodeo, but that didn't stop the show.  It is a good thing he had his chaps on to keep his legs dry.

Sally looks real excited, doesn't she?
