Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo 2012


It was pouring down rain, and yes, we drudged through it to be at the Rodeo Tuesday night!! Three important reasons: 1) it was Susan G.. Komen for Cure night at the Rodeo where everyone involved including the riders, and horses were in pink!! 2)Barbara is a breast cancer survivor and so we go to celebrate that and yell, clap, and cheer when she gets to stand up as a breast cancer survivor!! And 3) It's just a lot of fun to watch!! It brings back childhood memories of when we owned horses in Colorado and went frequently to Rodeos with my parents!! And quite frankly, because Aileen loves it!! She loves horses. When in High School she use to go to "Wings of Hope" in Burleson, Tx and not only loved riding the horses but the grooming of them as well. So as you can see, this would be the reason we would go pouring rain or not!!

My nephew Steven Brown came with us.


Alan was sick this night, so my friend Shawna came with and as you can see in the background, Barbara's sisters, Tootie, Beverly, and Bev's husband Ronnie were there as well!! As well as Bev's daughter Diana and her family, and Tooties two girls!! (not pictured, I'm sure they are so sad. lol)


Dad and Barbara!!


Also there was Barbara's son's Chris and his girlfriend Ashley, and David and his two kids Emmalin, and Landin.
