PBR

I come from a small town and grew up loving rodeos, bull riding being my favorite event of the night.  Last summer I took Tyson to his first rodeo.  It was so much fun watching the excitement in his eyes.  While in Heber over Christmas, we attending another bull riding event to support my brother, who recently decided to take up bull riding.  Through these outings I might have found a little country boy in my hubby.  

Friday morning I woke up to a surprise text from Tyson saying to pick up our cowboy boots from his parents house.  I was thrilled he was taking me to the PBR.  I had been telling him over and over again how much I wanted to go, but didn't think anything would come of it.  We slipped into our boots and made our way to the PBR.

While sitting in the nose bleeds one of the ushers approached us and asked if we would like to move down.  Without any hesitation we found ourselves in the third row.  How we got so lucky, I don't know. 

I told Tyson we need to make this an annual event and maybe one day we will find ourselves in Vegas for the finals.

My favorite part of the night was the rodeo clown!  He had me laughing like crazy with his dance moves.  I am happy to say, I got him to dance with me.  

All together the night was a success.  I love you babe!  Thank you for an amazing night.

Madera County Fair

This weekend Tyson and I made our way out to Madera to go on a double date with our friends Danny and Ali. We ate at a delicious little Italian restaurant called Dicicco's and attended the Madera County Fair. You know you are always in for a treat when you go to a County Fair. As we were attempting to enter the fair grounds we were stopped by a security guard who informed us that Danny was not allowed to enter with a blue hat and a blue shirt. Apparently, he might be representing a gang member and it was for his safety. After we were scanned with the medal detector we were off to enjoy the fair.

There was a snake exhibit that we had to check out. I wanted Tyson to conquer his fear of snakes. As a little boy he thought they lived at the bottom of his bed. We always have to change the channel if snakes appear on the television. Upon looking at the exhibit he did surprisingly well, although he may still remain a bit frightened of the slithering creatures.

I was thrilled when I saw the basketball hoop game. I am a nerd and told Tyson I wanted him to win me one of the stuffed animals. Lucky for me I married a basketball player.

His first shot was a success. The little carni was so happy and couldn't stop blowing his ref whistle. I couldn't stop laughing but as you can tell it took me back to the days when my dad would win me prizes.

I am a whimp and wouldn't go on any of the rides. I have had my fair share of nausea and have even thrown up on one of the rides at the Heber Fair.

I have to say my favorite part of fairs is the greasy food. Trashy but ever so tasty! I love the funnel cakes, cotton candy, churros, corn on the cob, and corn dogs.

I am glad we were able to attend the fair. It made for some good laughs. After the fair we went to Danny and Ali's new house to watch a movie. It made me very anxious for the day when we get our own house and I get to pull out all of our wedding gifts.
