Rodeo and Redneck Day

Last weekend we went to Fort Collins to watch Bryce Rodeo. He and Cameron did really well and would have placed 1st place in the round but their steer tripped on its way out of the box so it broke the barrier and added 10 seconds to their time. What would have been a 6.5 was then a 16.5. Way to go anyway guys!


Sunday we went to church and then had our English friends Tom, Jess and Paul over for a "redneck" day of sorts. We met at our house and then Sedar took us to her property where we proceeded to shoot multiple rounds through my 22 handgun, Sedar's 40 caliper handgun, and Sedar's 22 rifle. After getting too cold to stay out, we went to my parents house where we had a BBQ and taught Tom, Jess and Paul how to Rope and fly fish. Paul had never been on a horse, so we also got him on one for the first time.

Not quite a normal Easter, but still good. We were sad to say goodbye to them for the year as they had to go back to the UK and go back to work. Hopefully we will make it over there way in the next year or so.
