I pledge allegiance.....




Abush is now a US citizen! It has been quite the process, with alot of paperwork, but it is finally done! So glad he can get his drivers license now...

PRCA Rodeo




Tate has joined the PRCA. (Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association) He is riding with the big boys now! He has done really well, and took 1st place in the Farmington Rodeo!!! He took 7th in the Tremonton Rodeo. He rode in Evanston, but bucked off at 5 seconds...but was so excited to be riding with some big names, like Wes Silcox. He has so much support from family and friends~it is so fun to go and watch him compete. He is definitely on his way!

Bear Lake 2010 Labor Day


We went to Bear Lake this year, and did a little work on the trailer. But we also played!!! We rented a jet ski, and the boys had a great time for a couple of hours. That night, we went to Madison Staheli's wedding in Paradise. It was so nice and so fun to see their family. A couple of days later, we loaded up and went to Evanston for Tate's rodeo. It was a nice way to end the summer!

1st day of school 2010 - HIGH SCHOOL!




Abush starts high school this year at Salem Hills High. He is playing on the sophomore football team as a kicker, and a safety. Here's to a great year!!!

Mama's don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys!!!!












Workin' on the Other side of the BULL!


Tate and his friend Chase were bull fighters at the Salem Days buckaroo...so they really weren't bull, more like steers...but they had alot of fun with the kids!

Summertime Fun!




If the kids get bored, here's an idea.....4 parts corn starch to 1 part water. Mix it up, and when you work with it , it gets solid, but as soon as you let your hand still, it turns to liquid! So fun, and messy~~~ but they did this for like an hour!!!

Silver State in Fallon Nevada




We went to Fallon, Nevada for Tate's last high school rodeo. They had alot for the kids to do, like water volleyball, a trap shoot, and a dance every night.


We stayed with our good friends Steve and DeeDee Woodhouse. They were so gracious, and just let us come and go as we pleased!
We took a day and went to Virginia City where they filmed "Bonanza"! It's an old mining town. We also toured an old mansion. It was really neat!
Tate didn't do so well bull riding, but it was a fun week for all of us, and the Utah Team WON again
