King of the Cowboys

We’ve been watching westerns from the 1950s on Netflix, particularly Roy Rogers films. Yesterday, after I had laid Clara down for her afternoon nap, I made some peanut butter popcorn and settled in on the couch with the boys to watch Twilight in the Sierras (1950). I dozed off, and when I woke I asked Simon to catch me up:

Me: Ok, who are the good guys and who are the bad guys?

Simon: Well, I don’t know, but I think the guys who are shooting at the good guys are probably the bad guys.

Me: Yeah, that’s probably a good guess.

Today as the boys played, Simon was Roy Rogers, riding his horse Trigger. Since Simon had already claimed the cowboy hat, Ian had to be a little more creative: donning his builder’s hat — which, he told me, he was pretending was a cowboy hat — he was Jack, riding a horse also named Jack.
