Rodeo Houston 2012

We finally made it to Rodeo Houston today, on the last day of the event.  Through the miracles of social networking we saw that the Boyce's would be there at the same time and hooked up.  Sean and Elissa got along famously, however they mostly ignored poor Dylan - it is a good thing he had four adults to entertain him!

Sean at the Market, his favorite part of the show every year

This year Sean stopped to read all the educational signs

Sean and Dylan look at Sean and Dylan?  They are really looking at rabbits

The kids showing off their sand art - getting this picture was like herding cats

Busy kids makes hungry kids

I am not sure what the game is here, but Sean says he was being an allosaurus

Don't tell anyone, but they were holding hands waiting for a ride and it was cute!

Catching fish

Keep your hands and feet inside of the ride at all times!

Facebook Pics and Some Extras

Posting some pictures that are on Facebook, for non-Facebook followers.  This weekend started early for Sean and Aunt Joanne.  They, and Barbara and Grandma, went and flew a kite on Friday afternoon.  Saturday started out with all the Pastas (except Dave) running the Methodist Stride 4 Stroke.  We followed that up with a lot of yard work and then dinner at Jake's with Aunt Joanne.  Today we read a lot, went to Mass, and did more yard work.  Dave got to remove a dead possum from the garage lean-to, and Sean got to paint a ceramic birdhouse he received as a gift from the Cypress Boyces.

Just like Uncle Joe, the tongue out means he is concentrating

No shirt, not paint on shirt
