July 29th, 30th, and 31st was the celebration of That Famous Preston Night Rodeo!! The name originated from this particular rodeo being ONE of the FIRST NIGHT RODEOS IN THE NATION!! What an honor!! * There were girls from all over the map that came to represent their rodeo at this grand event... Talk about a line-up in Grand Entry!! I loved seeing each Queen and her court wave to the crowd when presented, gallop around the flags in serpantine, and hold their head high with pride in their title. The sport of Rodeo is lucky to have such wonderful people involved that LOVE this sport, and want to see it succeed in any means necessary. Not to mention, what would life be like without being able to see your favorite cowboy/cowgirl at the local rodeo?? - {Chills....}Having the life of a Rodeo Queen, I am proud to show my love for this sport, and my rodeo:: Dodge National Circuit Finals Rodeo. I had a BLAST participating Friday and Saturday night with my Rodeo's other royalty; Jr. Queen Shania Laird and Princess Randi Davis. In addition, there was a parade each night prior to the rodeo and EVERYONE was welcome to participate! I love seeing young and old alike watching and collecting candy.. hehe (I've been known to have a few sugar moments myself- missing out on all the candy is a bit of a draw back.. LOL). A little Circuit bonus = That Famous Preston Night Rodeo is a popular stop for those looking for a chance to pull ahead in the Wilderness Circuit Standings = What better way to compete than taking on Bar-T Rodeo Companies best of the best stock?? Let me tell you... They had some GREAT stock!! The cowboys competed hard; with determination and skill- ALL craving a piece of the winnings ** One of which Shania and I had the pleasure of taking a picture with:: Mr. Ron Adams!!! What a GREAT guy! We were soooo excited! Thank goodness Shania's mom (Sammy) was around in order to take the picture and keep us girls in line!! - Also a HUGE thank
