Jayli decided she was brave enough to ride the sheep in the rodeo this year. Jake signed her up last month. He got up early and waited in line at the county office to get her a spot. In fact the night we choose to go to the rodeo was on his birthday. We had everyone over for dinner and cake before the rodeo. So Jayli was excited to ride on dad's birthday. Jake's parents came to watch and brought Andi and Mindy. Jayli seemed a little nervous but not scared. When it was her turn Jake picked her up and set her on the sheep. Two other men were holding the sheep still. Jake told her to hold on tight with her arms and legs and try to stay on. She made it about 50 yards before she fell off to the side. She jumped up and jogged over to Jake and took off her hat and waved to the crowd! So cute! Brave little turkey enjoyed her few minutes of fame. I'm so proud of her.
