Yeah Dale Jr.!!!!!
Happy day at my house yesterday! Dale actually finished a race for a change and he came in 2nd!! Darn that last caution flag or I think he would have caught JJ for the win.

South Jordan yesterday!
So I must admit I am totally insane (I have an extreme barrel racing addiction) and went to South Jordan yesterday for a $500 added barrel race. It was a fun day and both of the horses worked nice. I did a time only on Blades and he worked a 3-D time against some tough open horses. I can't wait until December 1st so I can start entering him.
Junior worked good as always. If I would learn to totally trust him and just let him go do his job he would be such a super star. I haven't ran him in about 3 weeks and he was off for 7 days while I was in Denver so I was a wussy and rated him too much and too early. He always trys for me and I just love him to pieces!!!! Thanks J!!!

I also have to brag a little on Noelle and Diva from the Little Britches rodeo held at The Blackhawk Arena this weekend in Salina. The first go in barrels they ran a 15.9 and then yesterday they blew everyone else out of the water with a 15.6. They are currently sitting in the top ten in the National Little Britches standing (and will definately move up after this weekend) and are 11th in the State of Utah High School Rodeo standings. Yeah!!!! What a team those two are making!
Sorry.......
Ok, so I have been severely lacking in the blogging department for the past month. SORRY!!! (especially to my dear darling little sister Krissy who is such a faithful blogger)
So I finally got a promotion at work! I am the supervisor over 6 seasonal employees and 2 permanents. It also came with a very nice raise!!! Yeah. I am very excited after busting my butt at Bryce Canyon National Park for 17 long years to get some recognition for all I do there.
So Greg and I went to Denver, CO for I week so I could go to Fee Supervisor training. The training was good but the best thing was being able to spend some time with my husband away from home. We ate a ton of great food at some very nice restaurants and got to see some beautiful scenery. The fall colors on the way home were spectacular!!!
We were taking some photos at a rest stop called "Grizzly Creek" when it started to pour rain and as we turned around to head back to the truck this train came screaming by and scared the poop out of both of us!!!
Here are some random pics from the Utah State Fair a few weeks ago!

I know I am a slacker....
Just wanted to say Happy Fall to everyone!!! I promise to get caught up this week with my blogging. I have been super busy with work and horses but things are finally starting to slow down. I am heading out for Denver, CO on Sunday for a week long training for my job so I will have a lot of spare time in the evenings to play on my computer.
