We were able to go to the National Finals Rodeo on Thursday. It was so much fun. We had really good seats and were able to spent some time with Ernie. Wish Gail could have been there too, but Grandpa and Grandma needed to have some support there. Ernie got 4 tickets from Southwest Gas, a company they do training for. They were really good seats too. Section 111, Row R, Seats 13-16. We had a really good, but overly priced, BBQ Pork Sandwich for dinner and ate it in the arena before the show started. We took tons of pictures and enjoyed every minute of it. The Rodeo was awesome. It was a constant show. There was one rider after another, and event after event. It started with a crazy light and lazer show and introducing all the riders. John Michael Montgomery sang the national anthem and the show began with bareback. The excitement didn't stop after that. We didn't make it on the Jumbotron, but saw some funny people on there. Tuff Hedeman was a judge and Lane Frosts parents were there too so that was cool to see them. After the rodeo was over we left and met another Famous Person. Mitt Romney!!!!!!! Ya, for those of you who don't know who he is, like me until after the piture was taken, he ran for President. It was kinda cool to meet him. He was nice too. Sure wish he was the President.
Anyway, we got home around 1 am and crashed around 2. I had class the next morning so I was really tired, but it was so worth it. Thanks again for the tickets Ernie! It was a blast!
My Very good-looking Cowboy hubby.
We wanted to drive this home but thought people would get Jealous.
The view from our seats. Not to shabby at all.
That would be one cute couple posing for the camera.

New shirt from Mom for Jace.
I had no idea what this was when we opened it, but after asking my mom what it was I am very glad we got it. It turn our to be a pie or casserole dish carrier. You put the pie in the center then fold the small sides and tie them together then the other long sides have wood hands to carry it with. I love it.
Jaces new helicopter. He loves it. He let me fly it but I ran straight into our beautiful poinsettia and chopped the pretty flowers up. So I don't fly anymore.
My New Boots. :)
