RANDALL REUNION RODEO

Bert and Verna Randall posterity family reunion.  Only the Randalls could pull-off such a fun reunion by putting on a family rodeo.  Horses..cows...its in our blood!  We come from a history of cowboys.  My grandpa Randall was a true blue cowboy cattle rancher.  My dad was the youngest of the 8 children, so it was quite a large gathering and so fun to see family members I haven't seen in a longtime.
Dave picking up Baylee, throwing her on behind..racing to the finish.  They did good for their first time doing it.

Caleb the great spectator!

Lydia, wishing she had a horse of her own.

Baylee, giving pony rides


Watching the steer dressing...thinking how we gonna do that!

Way to go Kami! she caught a chick...a real country girl.

Baylee gearing up for the foot race.

Papa, back in the saddle again!  He is such a good lookin' Cowboy.  I loved growing up hearing all my dads stories of being a cowboy.  The girls loved getting rides with papa.


Baylee got second place in the musical buckets activity.

Yes, we girlies tried the calf dressing, too...  and did alot better that we thought we would.  Of course we didn't win, but what a rush wresting that calf.  Amy held the panties and I sat on the calf.  This picture makes me laugh

Great shot of mom and dad and cousin Shane (he has always been a clowny guy)

Wow! look at those tuff guys.  First place went to Dave, Dallan, and Troy for the steer dressing.  Although, I think Troy gets most the credit for that one, that steer had no hope of escape.


Dad and Uncle Bert
A parade to honor my Dad and his syblings.  Now the seniors of the crowd.  What a good lookin' bunch.

Just like "the Man from Snowy River"

Love this pic of Chelsey...in her element.

...and me in mine.  It's in the blood ...what can I say.

All of us together at last.  It's been a while.
