Rodeo
So I will admit that I have never been to a rodeo before. But this weekend the rodeo came to Kingman, so I decided to go. I have to say I felt very out of place amongst the cowboy hats, large belt buckles, and cowboy boots. It really is its' own culture. I did enjoy the barrel racing though. The roping was a little more than the animal lover inside of me could take though. At least I can say that I have been now :)
The FAIR
The fair was in town September 11-14, so of course we had to go since we don't have a movie theater, a mini golf course, or anything else. The theme was "It's a Jungle Out There." Although I'm not entirely sure where that theme came in.
I would have to say the highlight of the fair was my deep fried twinkie :) I was also intrigued by the deep fried snickers and reese cups, but I was glad I opted for the twinkie!
Coming in at a close second were the animals at the fair...
Of course we can't wait until next year :)

It feels like we have been on a worldwind tour the last month. First Utah for 10 days and then the sacred land of Minnesota. Every year my Mom's family gets together at the lake for a week. The cabin itself has seen better days. Think of a 1940's home with no updates. That's right, it's kind of nasty! It was wonderful to see everyone though and Jackson had a great time with all of his cousins. Too bad now he just has Mom and Dad to play with!

Vaca in Utah
So we have been in the traveling world the last month, hence not a lot of blogging going on. We spent the Fourth of July in Provo with Grandma Susan, Grandpa David, and Gram. We had a great time and it was fun to see everyone! Jackson and I got to stay for an extra week. Jackson loved being outside in the grass and watching the trees blow in the wind. We don't have much of either in Kingman :) He also loved playing with their dog Remi, that is until Remi decided that he was sick of Jackson getting all the attention and lunged at Jackson. Jackson was a trooper about the whole thing, he cried for a little while but by the end of the day he wanted to be friends with Remi again. Remi on the other hand did not!
