The next day I went to see my doctor for a regular check up, want to stay healthy all year. When I was being walked down the hall by the nurse one of the other nurses jumped out in front of me and said "Where's your crown?" I was startled and happy! I felt like a celebrity. In the room I found my newspaper article that my Doctor had cut out and had been holding onto for me. It was so sweet and I felt so happy to be recognized!
Thank you Doctor Pittinger! you know how to make a girl feel special!

Old Western Round Up-Loveland, Colorado
On May 19th Mom and I headed up north to The Ranch in Loveland, Colorado. The Old Western Round-Up was there for the weekend. All kinds of "makers" had their work on display. Everything from saddles to bits to boots! So amazing to see the custom designs. I met some great people and only bought one thing! I was proud of myself for not spending to much money!
I met some very nice people who had a new product they where featuring at the show. Based out of Arizona they make a product called " Brim Spur " a custom silver piece that goes on the brim of your hat. Vincent is the guy who makes them, his Colorado reps where at the show. They gave me a brim spur with with turquoise on it. And then ended up sending me a custom one with a bull on it that matches my crown perfectly!

On the way home we stopped at a few tack shops and they hung up my coronation flyer.
Mom thought I needed to try on this holster!
Back To Co
That night the guys came back from LA and I crashed with them at Eastside Cannery so we could get up real early and head out, We drove the entire day and made it home that night.
I was so blessed to have had such a great weekend with my Vegas family and go to a great PRCA rodeo.

Helldorado Rodeo day 2
The next day I spent the day with friends, Kandress and I went shopping and lounged in her hot tub! yeah it was a rough day :>
That night was rodeo night again and a whole bunch or my Vegas friends came to the rodeo and for most of them it was their first time at a rodeo! So neat for me to be the one to introduce them to rodeo.
I once again ran flags and did a queens run. I had fund hanging out with the beautiful Lauren Neil Miss Rodeo Nevada, I also helped her hold up a rope for the Riata Girl Trick Riding Act ( they are pretty amazing by the way )

Helldorado Rodeo day 1
The next day was Saturday, Rodeo Day! I was missing the NFPB fishing that day, but I was also having so much fun with my Vegas friends. I was so excited to carry flags that evening at the Helldorado Rodeo. Kandress and I got dressed, he husband approved of our outfits and took this picture for us, so he hit the road! lol
After we finally found a place to park my PT Cruiser, we found the queens and directors.
I asked Kandress to just keep snapping photos of me, I showed her where to go stand while I warmed up the horse and chatted with the other queens. I knew most of them from my time in Nevada. It was like old home week, and about 12 other queens! So fun. Thank you to the guys from Flying U rodeo for the horse to ride.
The rodeo went so great and I felt so blessed to be there.
Kandress and I ready to go!

Kadress found herself a clown!
Getting ready to ride
Talking with the committee and putting in bobby pins
I ran flags in the grand opening and did a queens run. They have huge TV screens at each corner of the arena, so you can watch yourself as you go! It's pretty neat.
My friend Shaun came and hung out with us ladies.
