War Bonnet Roundup (Rodeo)



This rodeo was great! We went last night to the rodeo and there were some of the top ranked cowboys and cowgirls competing. It is great because every year we go, we see Top-Ranked contestants ride! This is probably one of the best rodeos in Eastern Idaho, so everyone that lives on this side of the state should go to it sometime. They said last night that it was given one of the best rodeo awards for Idaho, Utah, and Nevada this last year...so that means it is good (and it is)!

Here is a little spill on it (I got it from the WBR Website):

Idaho’s Best Rodeo



The War Bonnet Roundup has brought our community the thrills and spills of the Wild West since 1911. Truly, many rodeos have gone before and many are to come, but none are better than the WBR Rodeo. So grab your hat, pull on your boots and enjoy the show! Watch as cowboys and cowgirls from all over compete for some of the biggest prize money in the Professional Rodeo Cowboy Association.“This is our 4th year promoting the War Bonnet Roundup, said event organizer Ty Jenkins. We have seen some great success and we are continuing along the path of making this a destination event where people plan their vacations around the WBR and travel here to see this world class event. With the addition of two country music superstars to the WBR Rodeo, we are one step closer..The WBR Rodeo is sanctioned by the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association and continues to bring many, many rodeo goers to the Idaho Falls area.

That's so awesome that you are working on starting your family! We are equally excited to start ours. It will be so much fun. I did graduate from the LDS Business College (good memory!) with an associates degree as a Legal Administrative Assistant. Jeff wants to be an attorney and he's got about 5 years left. You're lucky that your husband's about done. That is a day we look forward to!
