Slick Horns

On Christmas Eve my dad decided to have a all girl roping, which meant that Kelly and I were going to rope.  I was nervous to say the least because the last time we tried to rope together I ended up on the ground and Kelly has never let me forget that she never got to even throw her loop because I didn't catch.  I hit the cow a few times that day, but nothing close to catching.  I have tried a few times since then and not until yesterday did I catch anything but I was so excited when the rope went around the horns and then realized that we didn't have a photographer so I had no proof!  Luckily today my mom was out taking pictures while my dad, grandpa and I roped so I now have proof that i roped a cow!  Yeah!!!!

Yay for you! :) Darn, I wish I had known there was a rodeo today. The kids weren't taking naps like they were supposed to so we went for a drive and I actually thought about driving out there but I didn't think anybody would be around.
