| Grand entry: 23 teams from 6 states including New Mexico, Texas, Montana, Oklahoma, Kansas and Florida. |
 |
| Each night they bring in the military flags, and the US flag. The national anthem was sang each night by a 6 year old girl who ROCKED it. |
 |
| Two rounds of ranch saddle broncs each night! |
 |
| Stray gathering: Each team has 4 ropers and two steers. Steers must be headed/heeled and 3 legs tied; timed event. |
Near-perfect catch! Neck catch and double hock. Would have been better to have a horn catch, but oh well. One night there were only about 2 teams who actually made a time, so nobody is complaining about neck vs horn loop.
That right there is Cowboy Tim, Cowboy Josh and the one and only Marlboro Man. If you don't know who that is you obviously aren't a Ree Drummond/Pioneer Woman fan!!!! Really neat seeing them in person, I wanted to meet Ree but I never could find her. |

So this was my 4th year to go to the WRCA Ranch Rodeo, first year to go all 4 nights. I took 295 photos the first night, filled my memory card and realized that I had brought my laptop (intended to download photos each day) but no card reader. Fail!!!!!! Still ended up with 85 photos after going thru and getting rid of the 'icky' ones, so I'm alright with it. Part 2 coming up soon!

We were there Saturday, but not at the rodeo, and then went to the final rodeo Sunday. It looks like we weren't too far from you in sitting, too bad I never ran into you, and I never saw Ree either.
I saw y'all Sunday!! We were sitting right across the alley from y'all, 2nd row from the front.
awesome pictures!! I'm sad I missed it this year, but there is always next year!
Thank you Sara! Definitely need to hang out next year if we both make it.
That had to be insanely fun!
And I totally recognized Ree's fam from the pic! How exciting!
