White Deer Rodeo

There are few things I love more than July in White Deer. Between shoot-'em-yourself fireworks and the rodeo, it just doesn't get much more home-town than this.
Sadly, since Chris was taking the Bar the next week he stayed in Norman while Eli, the puppies and I traveled to Texas for a fun-filled weekend.


In true rodeo spirit we had to find a cowboy hat...


Seriously, could he get any cuter? Man, Chris better hope that our next child isn't any cuter or I will never want to stop having babies...


I wanted Eli to have a cute shirt to wear so I made this one for him. I saw one like it online for a ridiculous amount of money, so I just went to Hobby Lobby and bought a few pieces of felt and some thread.


It was a beautiful day...Eli was so charming and happy.



Eli and momma...


Here is the awesome Wrangler diaper cover that we got from Aaron and Beth- It was perfect for the rodeo!


Eli loved all of the attention. Here he is with Abby, Lori and Matt.


Aunt Cortney and Eli. We are so happy that they came down from Kansas this year! It was so great to see their crew!


Eli and Aunt Lynda...despite appearances, she is not teaching about our German heritage.

Miss Emmaelynn came too!


Eli loved Madison's phone...


Brooke, Alison and Emma...


Here is Stef taking Emma's picture. I have no idea how I even took this picture, but I think it is cool! :) I try to leave the picture taking to Chris.
