Anything and Everything BECAUSE Rodeo Season is here!

Rodeo season is here! WoooHoo! Who's Excited? I am! Well, I just figured I would fill everyone in on where I have been and what I have been doing since my last post. I also misplaced all my court coronation pictures from earlier in the year so I couldn't put them up...But I found them! So here we go with some beautiful ladies who represent the sport they love, their local communities & rodeos, as well as the people that support them!
