the rodeo

My mom and dad recently took the three older boys to the rodeo. Marshall was so excited to go see all the animals but even more excited about sleeping at Pop and Loni's with his cousins. He had his bag packed and was ready to go about 3 hours before his Pop and Loni were ready to take on all three boys. He waited and waited and when it was finally time to go he asked if he could walk down by himself since he is "so big." I sent him on his way then ran to call my dad and asked him to wait outside for him. I followed him with the camera but he kept turning around saying, "I don't need you, mommy. I can do it!" He looked so grown up!
