This is our great-granddaughter, who will be 2 in November. She particapated in her first Rodeo on Saturday. She has this little pony. To give you an idea of how big she is (the pony)... the 55 gallon drum (barrel) is about 3' tall.

She did the Clover Barrels, the straight barrels and also poles. She also gets a belt buckle, all she has to do in compete in three out of five rodeos, and she will automatically qualify for a belt buckle.
Her mom and her aunt (our son's twin daughters) both rodeo --- so the little one comes by it honest!
Thought seeing this might interest y'all--- as to how we live and raise kids here in the country in Texas!
