She's a COWGIRL, Baby!

Braylin attended her very first Fort Worth Stockshow and Rodeo. She rode a pony and even tried out her first fair ride! ha ha! Jared and I took a HUGE gamble taking her into the Rodeo, but this girl LOVES horses and she did very well for a busy 2 year old (but I'll wait at least a year before taking her to another one! hee hee!) She's so much fun and fills our lives with more joy and excitement than we could have ever imagined. Yeeeeehaw~!

1st fair ride... THE FLYING ALLIGATORS! (she didn't cry but
didn't exactly like it either. )
"We paid two whole tickets for this ride, Braylin,
YOU ARE STAYING ON TILL THE END!"

SHE LOVES CORNDOGS.

INTENSE RODEO WATCHING WITH DADDY.

Sug and I took her back a few days later to checkout the
shopping and reward her with the petting zoo.
Look, a goat! 

Bray no like Llamas, but Llama love Sug

lets try this pony ride again! 

We done wore this cowgirl out! 

She may not be a REAL cowgirl, 
but I promise she'll lasso your heart!

We are soooooooooo lucky because MY Nanny only lives 45 mins away. So Miss Braylin and I get to visit Nanny and Gene often. Each time we go is a new adventure for Braylin. There are cows, cats, dogs, trees, and whatever else living on a "farm" consists of (the outdoors, ok!). Our recent visit consisted of something all new! A TRACTOR-WAGON ride! Yes! Braylin is finally old enough. Gene reved up that ole tractor and Braylin, Nanny, and I hopped onto the ole wooden wagon (Yes, Nanny did to, and she shouldn't have. It was WAYYYY to bumpy for a nanny, but she hung in there and experienced every bit of it right along with Bray--and paid for it the next day. Sorry Nanny!).
TO THE PASTURE WE GO!

GENE! Starttttt yourrrrr ENGINE! 

first stop... where the cows hang out! 

It is wooden, splintery, has holes in the flooring,  and very bumpy,
but Nanny hung in there!  Chug-a-lug-chug-a-lug!

NANNY, you just look forward and HOLD ON! 

THANK YOU GENE. This little girl will NEVER forget it,
and will probably be asking to go again upon our next visit.
Nanny, I'll take pictures. You are staying home! 

my princess has a few rough edges...
I'd say that makes for a perfect little girl.
