party and a rodeo

Will and his Nana have a yearly tradition of attending the Greeley Stampede rodeo. Will has been looking forward to it all year- especially because this year he had an authentic vest (given by grandma and grandpa!) and cowboy boots (given by his aunties and uncle!)

The day of the rodeo he was determined to NOT take a nap so instead he got dressed for the rodeo early and then sat outside to wait for Nana to pick him up. Here he is calling Nana to find out exactly how long he had to wait.

"Can you come to my house really soon??"

"Nana said she's getting ready and will be here in awhile..."


To help pass the time i took him on a little photo shoot.

Are these just too cute, or what??!!

"Woohoo! she's here, see ya mom!"


We had a great time celebrating Nana's birthday on her patio. Will, as you can see, could not keep his eyes off that coconut cake!

Our good friends the Phipps came to celebrate too!

I just love Will's cowboy gear! I took Roger to the Greeley rodeo and he loved it, but we didn't have all that authentic gear...next year! It was such a blessing to see you yesterday - thank you for coming! Next time I hope to meet your adorable family. Love and prayers!

Will is quite the cowboy! He looks so sweet on the phone. :)
Happy Birthday to Sherrel!!! Looks like it was a very special time, and with a very yummy cake!
Sending hugs to everyone, and happy independence day!

Will looks very sharp in his cowboy gear! I hope he had a great time at the rodeo. Your mom's birthday celebration looked like it was a lot of fun with friends and family! Tell your mom hi for me! Hope all is well. Love you all very much! =)
