Dixie Roundup Rodeo and Parade

You know you have a strong testimony of rodeo and the effect it has on families when you travel to a rodeo over four hours from home and you have your mom and dad, Aunt Lisa and Uncle Barry, Cousin Justin and his wife Randy and their children, Cousin Marsha and her husband and children, my brother Cody and his wife Sharlee, and her parents John and Cindy all there for the rodeo. I guess I can honestly say rodeo is in our blood.

My brother was up in the steer wrestling Saturday night and my dad hazed for him and Dustin Bennett. Cody got 2nd in the rodeo and won a check; made his trip well worth it. Both Cody and Dustin have qualified for the Wilderness Circuit Finals in October in Ogden, Utah; so once again I know that I'll have another rodeo with a huge family support. I know that good parents and rodeo have been the structure for the type of person I am and I'm so proud of my heritage and our family relationship.
