Clark County Fair & Rodeo



CLARK COUNTY FAIR AND RODEO!!!
April 9, 2010

I look forward to this every year!
The RODEO out in Logandale is one of my favorite things!
It is a qualifier for the NFR,
so you have all the BIG Rodeo riders there!
The really cool thing is that you are right there where the action is,
with the dirt kicking up in your face.
Last year we grabbed a couple of grandkids and it made it even more fun.
This year I took off a couple of hours from work
and we went out earlier to spend some time at the fair before the rodeo.

OH YEA, WE ARE SOOOO BRAVE!
PUT OUR HANDS UP IN THE AIR!

OH NO! HANG ON FOR YOUR DEAR LIFE!




WE ARE SO EXCITED AT FIRST!



LIAM WENT TO TOWN ON THIS!



DIESEL WAS A LITTLE SCARED!




Of course, we had a great dinner of fried hot dogs,
fried funnel cakes and fried ice cream!
On our way over to the Rodeo we came across the Small Animal Arena.
We went inside and they were judging the kids with their prized HENS.
There were sheep in pens, pigs, a camel,
and animals I didn't even know what they were.
But the funnest little guy was the monkey who greeted us at the door.
He was just loose on a leash and he would jump on your foot
and ride it as you tapped it on the floor.
It was so entertaining. We could have spent a lot more time there.

ON TO THE RODEO!

MY THREE LITTLE BUCKAROOS!

Diesel, Jackson, and Liam

LET THE GAMES BEGIN!
Or something like that!












Diesel was a little tired by the end of the evening, but he was a trooper.
Mostly, because he knows we go shopping afterwords for swords, guns, or whatever!

At the end of the night we found our own bull to ride!

EASTER 2010


EASTER TRIP TO PRO BASS SHOP
TO SEE THE MERMAID & EASTER EGG HUNT
March 22, 2010

Troy's family came to town so we had a Gramma Sleepover.



After Breakfast we headed off to the Pro Bass Shop!
Who would have guessed that they put on an
Easter Egg hunt and Activities!




Aren't we a cute group!


OK Gramma, only time for 1 picture!


Look at all those animal heads!
I want one!


OK, This is the meeting place after you load up with Easter Eggs!


Liam, don't be so excited!



The two little girls were so excited to find 2 eggs each.
Stacy and the boys hardly found any eggs.



Then we met up with Taylor and Tyler. They were loaded.
We kept asking them where they found them.
They were very evasive. Finally they broke, and told us
that they followed the guy that was putting them out.
They went right behind him and just picked them up!


ON TO THE MERMAID!

SHE WAS FASCINATING!


SHE WANTED TO PLAY FOLLOW THE LEADER WITH SCOUT!


SHE WANTED TO KISS DIESEL!


BUT HE WOULD ONLY GO FOR PAPER ROCK SCISSORS!


TYLER GOT IN ON THE FUN!


WHAT! IT'S TIME FOR YOU TO GO!


UP UP AND AWAY!



BYE BYE LITTLE MERMAID!


THEN WE HEADED OVER TO DO SOME FISHING
AND BOAT BUILDING!
































































































CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF THAT FISHIN!


































AND OF COURSE, WE ALWAYS WRAP THE PARTY UP IN THE JACUZZI!





GOOD TIMES!!!
