Evanston Cowboy Days

I don't like going to rodeos. I'm proud to be from Wyoming and I consider myself more of a country girl than a city girl. But I can't watch rodeos. I feel so bad for the animals and I never enjoy myself. (I don't even go to zoos! Kills me!) Brad, Pania, and Fili begged me to go with them. Now, before you think ill of me, I know that ranchers, farmers, cowboys, cowgirls, ect., take great pride in caring for their animals. I just don't do the rodeo; that's all. Anyway, we missed most of it anyway, cause I took my time getting out to the car. I hardly watched it, and I had fun! I ran into a few people I knew so it was great.
Pania and Me (can you tell the difference?)
Our happy lil family!
Hunter, Fili, and Pania (notice the baby spit up on her shoulders?) :) Baby Sophia stayed home with Nanny and Boompa.
About the only thing I enjoy about the rodeo! Cowboy butts STILL drive me nuts!

Your post cracked me up and it reminded me of the good old days in Evanston. You and your sister look so cute!! I miss you guys and Ari is so beautiful. It is fun to see pictures of your brother and his kids.

Mel! I so wish I would have known you were in E-town. I've been here for 5 weeks, and am dying! (nah...its not that bad. Grandma and Grandpa spoil me and Miles) Well, anyway, mike is applying to some residency programs in Oklahoma, so if we interview there, I'll definitely have to come see you!

what a fun trip! I can't believe how grown up Hunter and Ari look.

Heather said...

Looks like you had a fun time and it was great seeing pictures of you and Pania--you guys do look so much alike.

Hey Melanie,
Stumbled on your blog and just wanted to say hello. Your little girl is gorgeous! What a cute family you have.

So I dont know if you will ever read this comment, but I thought I'de tell you something interesting anyway. JJ and moved to Lincoln, NE as you probably already know- and guess who is in our ward? MMMM HMMMM your inlaws! Or should I say, Brad's brother and his wife Katie. She's really cute, and she said she loves you to death. I forgot the husbands name though. Tim? I could be way off, but anyway, he looks a lot like Brad. I just thought that little connection was fun and kind of crazy!
