This was Kade's first year of riding club and he ROCKED it! 3 times a week for the entire summer we got up early and went to riding club. Sometimes it wasn't fun, and sometimes getting up was really hard, but on Saturday at their final meet....all their hard work paid off. Not only did the Dust Riders kill the drill and parade, but they won most of their races too. They did so good and I was so proud of them.

Like tradition, at the last riding club practice, the kids all loaded up in the back of Lana's horse trailer to go get a pop at the gas station. Here they are before they loaded up with their new hats on.

They made it! I was thinking about it, and only in Emery County can you load 25 kids in your horse trailer and take them down to get a pop. I love it!
Back to the meet: Tyce was glad that Grandpa Larsen came to watch the meet so that he could have a pal.
The races were so much fun to watch. Kade made most of the teams, and he did really well. His Keyhole team took first so he won a cool trophy. He also took 3rd in the crawl through, the poles, and the long barrels. The coolest part about the meet was the Kade was able to do the cloverleaf individual and won 3rd place! It was awesome!
It was a really long day, but very rewarding. I was super proud of my little Cowboy!

good job Kade! Your boys are so cute!
This was the first year in like 5 that Jeff didn't do riding club...and is it horrible to say that I didn't miss it?? BUT it would be different if it were my kids, right? So proud of big Kaders! And I am IN LOVE with your superhero in your rodeo post. I was CRACKING UP! So glad you let him wear his get up wherever he goes. You never know when you might need a good superhero around!
