4th of July Vacation - Part 1

Chris's parents drove out and got to Arizona for 4th of July weekend. We decided to go up to Prescott for a little cooler weather and some change of scenery. We tried to start out our holiday weekend celebration by going to see fireworks in Anthem, but they were rained out by a monsoon storm. Friday, July 4th - We drove up to Prescott. We went to the Prescott Rodeo - the World's Oldest Rodeo.

Our first trip to the rodeo! We all had fun! (Well minus Hayden who was fighting a nap the entire second half of the rodeo.)

Hayden was excited to see the horses before the rodeo started.

Started off with the parade of horses and flags.

They had bucking broncos. And steer roping. Didn't get those pictures due to a squirming toddler. 

Then they had these beautiful horses between events. They are huge!! But watching them maneuver that buggy was quite impressive!

Then they had barrel racing.

And finally they had bull riding (again fussing toddler). That was quite impressive to watch! 

Afterwards, we decided to go to the hotel for a little bit (that's for the next post)... these two passed out almost immediately after we got in the car.
