Rodeo...take 2

So remember how in the fall I rode a steer? Well, I signed up to ride again! My goal was to beat my old record of about 3 seconds...but I just tied it. It was so much fun and I am so glad so many people came to support me, I really appreciate that. After the rodeo, we went to this country dance and they had a mechanical bull there...so I rode that too and did much better. So now I am ready to try it again next fall? Yes! Count me in!


So happy!


I was so determined to do better...but my steer turned so sharp right as the gate opened...it was unexpected.


Falling...

It was just the best day ever! I got to be outside, be around animals (especially cows), and horses and cowboys! Holla. I love rodeos!!

Soon to come: the video of me riding...hold onto your pants.

Circus

So I am a little behind on my posts...my bad. But a while ago, our FHE group decided to go to the circus that was in town! It was so amazing and I was so happy and my mind was blown. ALSO! I rode an elephant! Yeah buddy!


Angie, me, and Dara on an elephant...no big deal...


I like all of our faces in this one...hahaha. classic.

The ancient japanese art of Karaoke...


Me and Greg looking through all of the songs.

Craig, Katie, Leah, and myself

Victoria, Dara, Steph

So on Saturday night a bunch of us went to a Karaoke place in Rigby. I wasn't planning on singing at all, but I gave into peer pressure. It was a very fun night full of laughter, singing, pool, and much more.

Big Juds Adventure

Katie, Chelsey, Ashley


Huge hamburger! If you eat that whole thing then you get it for free maybe...I might have made that up. But you do get your picture on the wall. But don't worry, we split it 4 ways. Awesome.


Katie, Victoria, Ashely, Me, Angie

We all went out for an adventure and we went to Big Juds. It was delicious and good times. Also on our way home we saw a moose on the side of the road. Moose are so majestic and mighty and I wanted to give it a hug...but I didn't, cause I might have died. It was a great time all around.

I love you mom!





Mother! I love you so much! I am so grateful to have you as my mom. I feel so blessed to be your daughter. You are the best mom in the whole wide world! I am so grateful for all that you have taught me. I am grateful for your testimony and your strength in the gospel and for letting me lean on your testimony until I gained my own. Thank you for teaching me to work hard and for being the best example of a hard worker. Thank you for always being there for me, for comforting me, for taking care of me when I was sick, for being silly and making me laugh, for all of the delicious home cooked meals you prepared, for listening to me, for teaching me everything I know, for believing in me, for seeing my potential, for loving me, for supporting me, for braiding my hair everyday and for everything else! Thank you mom!

I love you with all of my heart and can't even begin to put into words how much I appreciate you and all that you have done and continue to do for me. You are the most amazing woman I know. You are so beautiful and I love how you are in better shape than all of us combined. Awesome. You are always willing and happy to serve others. You are always ready to help others and people everywhere look to you and admire your good example. You never cease to amaze me with your many talents and the perfect example that you are to me. I love you mom! You are my hero!

Bonfire




So a while ago...a huge bonfire happened. It was the largest bonfire I had ever seen, very impressive. Also there were hundreds of people! It was a great time! Also I am glad Katie is back in town because she is the best at taking pictures and I appreciate that. In addition, she is so fun and keeps me laughing!

Cinco de Mayo!




Happy Cinco de Mayo. In honor of this day I wore my Mexican shirt! I also went out to eat at a Mexican restaurant and went to a little party to celebrate. It was a great day all around. I also went country dancing, which is a big deal for me - but it was a lot of fun. Mostly I love the line dancing because I don't really know how to dance. But I am slowly learning...yeah. I also wrote some letters today, got some stamps, and cleaned. A very productive and busy day. Life is good.
