Stampeding it up!!!!!

Well on a friday night what better to do that get all gussied up, put on your finest western wear, and go out and join the classy people of Nampa, Idaho for the Snake River Stampede (or at least that is what Cortney and I thought!) We even got VIP treatment with a free bbq before hand thanks to Randy Howard. This fun event is an annual event that lasts for an entire week. Hopefully next summer mom and dad can plan a vacation around it :)

Thank goodness we did not even miss the Mutton Bustin' (little kids riding sheep). The kiddo who won made it all the way to the center of the arena where the herd of sheep that had already been ridin' were waiting and then he was drug a few extra feet. Pretty impressive for a 5 or 6 year old. I must say that someday when I am a parent it would sure be a worthwhile event to enter my child into!!!

Cort and I dressed in our finest western attire

Must bust out the cowgirl boots for an event like this

Having fun with the camera :)

The venue: The Idaho Center

The One Arm Bandit show from Oklahoma

The one arm bandit and his horse chased these two buffalo onto the top of the horse trailer (impressive!)

Documenting my attire from head to toe

We even got a fun hand stamp for the Mikes Hard Lemonade!
