San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo

The first weekend of the stock show we decided to brave the rainy weather and go check out the stock show.  So glad we did!  It was not crowded and the kids had the best time.  Gran came along as well to have fun.  Both of the kids really enjoyed seeing all the animals in the petting zoo and getting up close and personal! We walked around and looked at all the exhibits including one about milking a cow in which you could practice on a dummy cow!  We even got free ice cream!  Chance had the best time sticking his head thru all the cut outs and posing for pictures.  We ate lunch in the drizzle and ended our time riding the carrousel (I was the mom peeling my son's death grip off the pole as he screams bloody murder because he wants to ride again yes that was me).  I just love all the pictures from that day!  They both crashed on the way home almost instantly.  Fun times.  To complete the day Ben and I got a sitter for the night and enjoyed dinner and a movie.  We had not been to the movies in over two years.  We saw Les Miserables.  It was wonderful if you have not seen it yet.  Really enjoyed the day with my family.










He was actually sleeping among all the chaos!



Free ice cream.  The little boy next to him was upset because Chance sat down next to him!
