I love blogging. Especially browsing around and seeing other's posts. But I especially love being able to log on and see my daughter's families and what they are up to. It makes it so they don't seem so far away! Last weekend, as is tradition in Randy's family, we all gathered in Preston for the Famous Preston Night Rodeo. Grandma treats us every year. Knowing how much Rachel and Brad like rodeos it made me miss them!! Other than that we had everyone there, including Randy! (Randy has managed to miss the last few years due to work obligations). Nathan has always got into the spirit of things, but as we were making the rounds at the street sales, I realized Jordan wanted to follow suit. The favorite stop was the DI, where they had sold 160 pairs of used cowboy boots the day before and were headed to another successful day of sales. We found a pair for Nate. I wanted to give them to him for his birthday because I never know what to buy him, but Jordan thought he needed them for the rodeo. (Due to his broken foot, he couldn't wear them yet) Anyway, they made pretty cute cowboys! Grandma helped Jordan find a pair of boots and a shirt so he could join in the fun.
Well, Alisa couldn't miss out on the fun, so she donned Nate's new cowboy boots and searched grandma's house for something to dress up in, she reminded me of Annie from Annie get your Gun
Well, at the parade, Aunt Rozy told the kids you have to wave if you want candy, so Conner waved his little hand the whole parade, it was pretty funny! It worked though!
Anyway, another year, another memory!
We missed you Rachel!

hahaha-I never thought that I would see Nathan in Cowboy Get-up. That's awesome! I have loved going to the Preston night rodeo in years past, but I can't believe how fast time flies! I don't know if I've been since I've been married!
It looks like you guys had a great time, and what a great tradition to keep up with for your family!
Thanks for the update. Rylie loved the picture and of course, shouted "JEW" everytime Jordan was in them.
Looks like you had a good time. We hope to make it next year.
