Let's Rodeo San Antonio!!!!!!!!!!

On February 11th, we took the kids to the San Antonio Livestock Show & Rodeo to see Keith Urban. This was Josh's second Rodeo performance, but obviously, Addie's first show. Given her sensitivity to loud noises, I was a little nervous about how she'd react. At first, she did fuss a little bit, but she was soon enamored by the lights & sounds...and animals :-) Thanks to Mike's boss, we had AMAZING seats in a lower level box!

Our little cowboy....HOWDY Par'ner!!!

We took Jamie Armstrong (one of Mike's engineers) and his fiance and soon to be step daughter with us.  It took Addie a little while, but she warmed up to Jamie & watched the rodeo from his lap some.  Adalida (Jamie's soon to be step daughter) really liked playing with Addie and of course Addie loved the interaction too!

Josh loved watching the rodeo, but got upset when the bucking broncs would make a cowboy lose his hat during a ride.  He even shouted out at one of them "That's NOT nice!  You need time out!"

Before the concert started, Mike ordered some popcorn for the kids to snack on.  Even though this was a matinee performance, Josh started to show signs of being tired.  He had a busy day.  It began by celebrating Reese's birthday that morning.  In all the excitement of the rodeo, he didn't get a nap at all on Saturday!










By the time the concert started, Addie had crashed out...she only got a short nap while we drove to the AT&T center from the birthday party.  Ironically, she slept pretty peacefully through most of the concert...well, up until Keith Urban came into our stands to sing!

Midway through his performance, he jumped the fence & climbed up into our stands.  He walked right past us and sang about 10 rows above us!  After he sang, he signed his guitar and gave it to a girl standing behind him.  Then he walked right past us again while greeting his fans.  It was a pretty good experience!
