The Champion
My granddaughter Lyndsey is the one of the right. WTG Lyndsey.
2014 Grand Champion Goat Tying JR High Rodeo
I've been trying to get this posted for weeks now. Don't know if I've mentioned that I've gone back to work. It was suppose to just a part time job, maybe 20 hrs a week and it's turned into a 90 hour a week plus job. Before I retired I was an apartment manager (tough profession), well after 4 years of retirement I decided I wanted a part time job so I got a job at Home Depot as a cashier, it was going pretty good, was not crazy about the hours but hey....well anyway this gentleman that I knew who owns many rental properties came into Home Depot and asked why I was working there and that I needed to come to work for him. Well, after many back and forth phone calls I finally caved and took the job. The first couple of weeks were just about 25 hours and then it got closer to what we call "turn" and I decided with all I had to do 25 hours were not enough time so I kept increasing the hours a day and here I am.
Anyway, what I am getting at is a couple of weeks ago my beautiful granddaughter Lyndsey made it to the JR High Rodeo finals, which were held in Des Moines, Iowa which is about 3.5 hrs from here so of course I was going to go and see her compete. What an exciting and wonderful time it was. She won all her go rounds and was in second place for the final competition and won by just 100's of seconds. OH My it was heart pounding excitement.
Here she is with some of her winnings.
We are all so proud of her, and I was so happy that I was able to share this special event with her.
Love you so much....Mammy.
thanks for taking time to stop by, I do have some new recipes to share and will do so very soon. Have a great weekend and Remember to Always Find the Time to Do ALL the Things YOU Love.
