I was able to go to the stock show with my parents and Jamie this year, it was a lot of fun! We went on a Monday night and it wasn't too crowded. We walked around a while, and then went to watch the bull-riding. Very cool experience, I'll definitely go again next year!
Jamie and I doing a little bull-riding ourselves... just kidding, this guy was the nicest creature, although it is a weird sensation because their skin moves around and so you feel like you are falling off. He was huge though, we had to climb up a ladder to get on, and then Jamie was happy when the cute cowboy lifted us off.. not me though (wink wink)
Enjoying some pulled pork sandwiches. Not as good as Goodwood, but still pretty good. You can't have a stock show without some good smoked barbecue!

Just a little piece of the action... there were too many photos to put on here! It was pretty entertaining though... a big shout out to the rodeo clowns! Those guys are amazing.. they grab bucking bulls by the horns like its no big deal, while the cowboy runs away like a girl! We saw some pretty good rides though, almost too good, we were hoping for a few more run-away bulls and what not..

Looks like so much fun! I would totally go to a rodeo with you! I've only been once. And I say bring on the pictures.
Don't you look cute in your cowboy hat?! We went to the NFR a couple of years ago and it was so much fun too. Miss you guys
I think I need to spend even more time with the kindergarten kids because looking at your rodeo pictures when I read the caption about pulled-pork I thought it was cruelly ironic since you'd just been on a bull. Hello! I'm a knob! Different animals!! (I am thinking I get stupider with more education...hmm....too late to stop now. I'll hope I'm just sleep deprvied). Really though, it seems weird to see you riding a big 'ol hunk o'beef and then read about you eating pulled-pork. But it also looks like you guys had a great time!
p.s. I don't think I should be allowed to "post" since I ramble :)
Hi Jess! Love the pictures! How are ya? I miss you!!
