I like to get to the rodeo early so we can people watch. At the Oakley rodeo where we were sitting we could watch some of the cowboys getting dressed! It was truly a show before the show. Unfortunately no pictures were taken. But we will reserve the same seats again next year. I did get these pics of my kids at my new favorite rodeo:
Notice Oakley's hat, yes she is named after the town Oakley.
The best part was my sister and her family and my parents came with us. My mom and dad came to the Oakley Rodeo 44 years ago on a date. So this was "just like old days" minus the 2 mouthy daughters and 5 grandkids sharing their licorice and blankets.

My sister Norma and her daughter Kat:
Can't wait till next year!

My favorite part was when the announcer kept saying, over and over "Come on Oakley!!! Let's hear it!!" and Oakley was getting exasperated :)
Oh, Doreen you are hilarious! I wish I could have been there! Hopefully next time.
LOVE OAKLEY!!!! You can see my old house from the new rodeo grounds - it is just behind it.
I love Oakley, too!! Whenever we drive there we say "hey maybe we can move here and be the Oakley Cousins." If there is a rodeo that is one more reason to move there. Oh, besides getting pink Oakley hats.
I love it! I'm glad to see you're back blogging again. I sure miss you!
