Emily Get's Her Ears Pierced for her Seventh Birthday!

September 8, 2008

WOOHOO! Emily is so brave! She has been bugging me for months to get her ears pierced. I kept telling her I thought she was too little... she was insistant! I told her that I was 12 when I got my ears pierced and explained to her that I went with my mom three times to get them done and chickened out everytime so she made all of my sisters and I wait until we were 12 to get them done.
There were two other girls named Emily there to get their ears pierced too. Thought that was such a fun coincidence. She was all smiles and first and then after it was done there were a few tears but it didnt take too long for the smile to return through the tears. She picked gold flower studs with pink crystals on the petals and a diamond in the center. I think they look very pretty. Em was really happy with them too.

Stinky Shoe Horse Ride with Dad, Christy Me and Shane

September 6, 2008

After the state show in Fillmore, Christy and Shane and Dad and I drove up Salina Canyon and slept over night the horse trailers. We got up at the crack of dawn and went on a 10 hour horse ride! I took so many beautiful pictures and had a hard time just picking a few so I didnt :) We had such an amazing ride! My dad told us a bunch of old hunting stories and even found the rack of an Elk from years before and he told us the story about how it came to die there. I wish more rides like this one happened. After we got back to the trailer, we fed the horses and I cooked us some dinner on my dad's camp stove. Our behinds were mighty sore!

Fillmore State Show - Potato Race

September 5, 2008

Potato Race - When I started the club, the potato race was my least favorite event! Reminds me a lot of the flag race and can be soooo hit and miss. Cowgirl was a mess at it, so fired up to be accurate. But Hank on the other hand learned it so fast and it ended up being one of my favorite events. Barrels is still my #1 event. Funny when you ride a different horse how other things are a little more fun. I really like the poles now because of the way Hank moves through them. FUN FUN!

Fillmore State Show - Water Race

September 5, 2008

Water Race - We had so much fun! Didnt place... had faulty equipment of all things!!!! Paid for a grievance to get a re-ride and was denied. Oh Well... sill so much fun!
