Gunlock Rodeo Fun

Nobody loves to get away as much as I do which is probably why the rodeo lifestyle fits me so well, this weekend we took a little get away and went to the Gunlock rodeo! Besides getting to hang out with some of our favorite people, it was great because I got to breakaway rope and team rope which I haven't got to do for a while! The first night I roped a 2.7 in the breakaway and roped an 8.06 (+5)  with my good friend Josh in the team roping, even though I only heeled one leg we still placed, but the best was yet to come! Josh decided to lend me his head horse so I could rope for Brock, I was a little nervous after not roping heads for 2 years and riding a horse I have never been on before, I ended up catching for Brock but he sadly missed the heels he was a little hard on himself but I was SO happy we got to rope together! The second night didn't go quite as well I ended up being a 2.9 in the breakaway and had some hard luck with both Brock and Josh in the team roping, regardless of our hard luck we had a blast and got to spend some much needed time with Brock's family! it was a long and tiring weekend, but I am ready to go again this weekend! Next stop Triple C Arena in Panguitch, Utah for the NBHA barrel race!

Busy, Busy, Busy

Our summer has been very busy so far and it doesn't look like we will be slowing down anytime soon!  June was jam packed with brandings, camping trips, and celebration. On June 21st I celebrated my 20th birthday and kissed my teenage years goodbye, on June 22nd we celebrated my moms 49th birthday! Our July is looking to be just as busy as last month with rodeos and barrel races every weekend, which is why summer is my favorite time of year! I look forward to spending a lot of time on the road this month and getting to spend time with my awesome family, as the weeks go on I hope I can get a lot more blogging done, because I truly do enjoy it!
