Saturday, Roping with Uncle Bill

Finn, Gavin, Harry, Uncle Bill, and Jessie the Horse.

Lunch after!
We went and watched part of a roping contest that Gavin's Uncle Bill (Nada's brother) was competing in. It was a lot of fun to watch. The boys loved the horses and Finn got really into the roping, two people would try to rope a steer one gets the head and one the feet Finn got so excited when they would get both, which did not happen as often as you might think! The feet seem really hard to get!
We did not get to see Bill rope he was around number 178 or so and the boys were hot and hungry Uncle Bill being the laid back cowboy said he did not mind if we did not stay! We had a fun talk with him though and he and Finn hit it off!
After we went to an out door mall and got some Pizza to go from CPK and ate it in the shade by the fountain. It was a fun day!

Looks like a fun and how nice to get to bond with Uncle Bill. Where does he live? I don't know anything about him.

It looks like Finn can still be a bit choosy about having his picture taken. You look cool and lovely at the California Pizza Kitchen.
