Rodeo/Early Birthday Weekend

This past weekend some of my family came in for the Sisters Rodeo. My parents started this tradition when I was in middle school and it's a weekend I look forward to all year! This time around it was sorta weird to realize I lived in Sisters now, but it actually made the Rodeo that much more meaningful to me. I didn't take my camera into the Rodeo because it's annoying to be worried your bag is going to fall down between the stands the whole time, but my brother took lots of pictures so maybe I'll put them up when I get some of his.

Since most of my family was here, we decided to do a little early birthday party for Bauer so the cousins could celebrate with him. I didn't do too much for his "Rodeo Roundup" party, just hung some balloons, we had a BBQ and then I made him a Cowboy Boot cake. The weekend was so fun! I'm trying to get better at taking pictures, but I was having too much fun this weekend to stop!

The Cowboy Boot Cake-- I'll admit I'd never frosted a cake before, but it was actually super fun
