It's a Cowboy round up!

As always my parents threw an amazing New Years eve party! We had so much fun. We were all told to come dressed as cowboys for a cowboy party. When we got there my parents had a projector playing old west movies on the wall in the family room. After the movie was over we were all given some gold coin money and escorted to the garage. Wow! My parents really out did themselves this year. They had turn the whole garage into a western scene. It had the desert, a jail, a hotel, a saloon, hay bales and a bon fire. They had covered the walls and ceiling of the garage with cardboard and painted it all with different scenes. They had even put up sheets and Christmas lights to make a starry night. The pictures just can't do it justice, it was so neat! We then had a great dinner of Fried Chicken, Beans and Mini Hot Dogs, rolls and Cream Soda. Then we played different games. Horse shoes, A Cowboy quick draw(The boys loved this, and Michael was really good), play dough western sculptures, a cow(balloon) round up and my favorite, horse races. My parents found horse masks and the dads had to act as horses for their kids. Shans knees were shot after the first race, but he was a trooper and raced two more times. For every game you won you received more money. We then had cobbler and played hearts with our left over money. After hearts was done we rang in the new year with a fireworks display Kurtis put together with fireworks from Kansas, it was awesome. It was such a fun party, we can't wait to see what my parents come up with next time! Thanks mom and dad for a great time!
