The Big Day

Today is the day that Tallon talks about and waits for all year, The Little Buckaroo Rodeo!!! He prepares and dreams of the day that he finally gets to buck on sheep. He has been mutton busting for 3 years and is soooo hooked!! His first ride was when he was 3 and he talks of little else. This year was so much fun. Now that he is bigger that long awaited ride lasts longer and this year he was awesome. Here he is looking over the arena planning his big ride.

Tallon and Clancy talking things over. These two are so cute when they are all cowboyed up!!

I think this is about the cutest thing of the day. What a kid!
Here is the start of Tallon's ride. He was going to ride with one hand, but when he got up there he decided that the sheep looked fast and two hands would be better!
His dramatic finish. I laugh so hard every time I look at this picture. He ate a lot of dirt but that didn't seem to bother him, it only made his story that much better.
Being saved by the clowns. He was rather bothered by this part of his ride. He said that the clown laid on him forever!!! The sheep landing right on top of him was okay, but some guy trying to save him didn't impress him at all.
Walking out of the arena with the clowns and his dad. Tyler is hiding behind one of the clowns and it was a good thing because he is laughing at how much sand Tallon is hitting out of his helmet.
Tallon and Great Grandpa Taylor (one of his biggest fans).
Getting a kiss from biggest fan number two (his mom is number one of course) Great Grandma Taylor.
Tallon was awesome this year. He is already making big plans for next year and I am sure that it will be just as great.
