Dixie Stampede

Last week we had the fun opportunity to see Dolly Parton's Dixie Stampede. It was Sam and Mac's first time and only my second, so we were real excited to go. I wasn't too sure how Mac would do during the show and really contemplated whether or not to take him. I knew he'd like it, just wasn't sure it'd hold his interest for the duration. Boy, was I wrong!!!! He absolutely loved it...from beginning to end. He never took his eyes off the excitement. The show includes a delicious meal that you eat with your hands, and man, it is soooo good! Sam survived getting his hands dirty and used up all the wet wipes when it was over :) We had a blast and can't wait to take all our visiting friends to enjoy the show!

North vs. South

Something really has Mac's attention

Glued to the horses, dancers, and excitement

He did stop looking long enough to play with the cups

Its hard to make out the sign, but this horse's name is Sam

And this one is Mac...how cool??

You can't quite make this out on Mac's sign, but the second line says "He and his partner Sam have been pulling wagons together since they were both old enough to be hitched up." How cute, Mac and Sam are parters :)

The big Branson finale where everything is "God and Country."

Couldn't leave without a shot of good ol Dolly!

Giving high fives. She has no idea that Mac is now her biggest fan!
