Cowboy Cooper...

... and his horse, "KiKi". Yes, they each made their own stick-horses out of PVC pipe and lunch sacks, and got to name their horses.

Cooper is loving preschool. His teacher, Lesa, is amazing, and we are continually impressed at the things he brings home. A few weeks ago, they learned about Cowboys. They made horses out of rectangles and yarn, made "trail-mix" by counting different foods into a bag they had decorated, paint-stamped handkerchiefs, and prepared for their RODEO!

Yes, parents were invited, the kids got dressed up, and it was a YEE-HAW good time! :) Daddy even got to come during his lunch hour.

We said the Pledge of Allegiance, they did their parade, each cowboy(girl) was introduced with their horse, they showed off their galloping, trick-rode through a ring, and got to show off their very own "trick". Cooper's trick.... riding his horse while hopping on one foot. It was unique, exciting, and actually quite impressive! :) 

They finished off with the song "I'm a Little Cowboy" (to the tune of "I'm a Little Teapot"), and did their final ride and wave of their hats

Cooper loves his friends at preschool.
