Yee Haw!

Hudson requested a cowboy themed birthday party. He had to whittle his guest list down to 5 friends. I kept pretty simple and easy. No over-the-top pendant banner or tablescape.

Instead we had a cowboy obstacle course: roping a steer (ring toss around a calf from the rocking horse,) hauling water (bean bag toss into bucket,) jumping the fence (hurdling,) pole bending (riding the stick horse,) and hay stacking (stacking wooden blocks.) The boys love the race against the stop watch. We had target practice with a rubber band gun and ring toss to earn their beverage.Who knew that boys liked their pictures taken. They were quite the hams.Two seconds after this serious one, they broke out laughing. And for the grub they had sloppy joes and baked beans.
