Mike volunteered us to help with the Neola Kids' Rodeo. If we helped take tickets and sign kids up we could enter our family into any of the events. Josh and Heidi brought Deegan to the rodeo and we entered him (and a million or so other kids) in the chicken chase and the rabbit chase.

While waiting for the events to begin, Deegan did what any other four year old boy would do--found a sand pile to play in. At first he just played in the sand, digging, piling, etc. Then he decided it would be fun to fill his hat with sand and dump it out. I don't really know the purpose of the activity other than to annoy the grown-ups and get sand in his hair when he put the hat on. Oh well! He had fun, and that's what counts!
They're off and chasing!

One disappointed little boy! Deegan tried so hard and came close to catching one of the little critters, but the buggers just slipped right out of his grip. Softy Nonna was ready to buy Deegan a rabbit--but was voted down. Do you think I can rig the event for next year?
