Why Do We Let 3 Year Olds Do Mutton Bustin'?

Silas showed his cowboy colors this weekend at the North Idaho Fair. He wanted to mutton bust, so we paid the fee and turned on the video camera. Poor guy had no idea that the sheep are not as friendly as the neighbor's horse. We did try to warn him, but he had his mind set.


Here's the little buckaroo post-bustin'.

Tif, that is one of the funnier things I've seen. Man, he's brave, there is no way we would have gotten Nate to do something like that. I love the limp off the field while holding his behind and then having to be carried. Poor little guy, did he get a bruised bottom?! Send him some love from auntie Jenna and tell him I think he's real brave.(:

He likes to tell the story about when he rode the sheep, but he went really fast, and then he hurt his bottom, and arm (right here), but he was brave...he's now talking about doing it at the Spokane fair that's in a week!
