Greg and I spent a night this last weekend with friends at the PBR (professional bull riding).
I just happen to have a good friend who knows everything there is to know about bull riding. In fact she was a closet PBR fan for awhile...it has just been in the past few years that she has come out of the closet...and since then those of us who never tuned into the PBR are now familiar with all things bull...well sort of...I know that the cowboy needs to stay on the bull for 8 seconds for his points to count...and ummm...okay, so maybe that is really the only thing I know for sure when it comes to scoring the bull ride...but what I do know is that the PBR puts on one heck of a show...they have fire, a very funny witty clown mc dancing extraordinaire named Flint, loud music that makes you want to rock, gorgeous bulls, some cute cowboys...definitely a little different then the only rodeo I went to in Manti, Utah when I was younger...
Amy...our PBR expert, coordinator of fun night, awesome friend
The night started with a blast of fire...
Having a good time with friends and bulls.

Fun group to be with...but looking lame in this photo.
Ouch. This was my thought watching the bull riders trying to stay on as the bull bucked the heck out of them.Thanks Amy for sharing your love for bull riding with us...it was a great night. We look forward to doing it again next year! And next year we just might come a little more informed... because maybe we just might tune into some bull riding events on tv too...
who knew? amy is a bull riding friend? i would have never suspected. i know it's HUGELY popular, but people don't wear bull riding jerseys or bull riding baseball caps (or do they?). hey...didn't jewel marry a bull rider? it's so en vogue! :) having a dad that grew up in a very small Idaho town, with cousins that rode bulls and even one that is on the circuit (?), i feel like i can claim this sport in my blood. it's a stretch, i know. love you! btw, we are planning a trip to Disney this spring break and camden said, "hey...maybe our cousins can meet us there again!" it left such us with such great memories! wish we were closer.
