Marriage=building boats!

Us at the Oakley rodeo!


This past fourth of July weekend, Robby and I were able to go to his grandma's cabin. We built a pretty amazing boat for their annual boat race and it took us six hours to complete! (It would have taken 5-but I wanted Robby to teach me how to drill-I married a patient man:)). That night- we went to the Oakley Rodeo. Pretty cute since we went to the same rodeo last summer. I really like rodeo's. There's a feeling of America that you just can't find anywhere else. Robby and I went to the ward in Oakley and I have never seen a chapel so packed! The overflow was also completely full and we ended up sitting out in the foyer with two families and a lot of little kids. One of the little kids came and told her aunt that she was going to sit in the middle. The aunt, thinking the child meant the middle seat that was placed along the wall just smiled and said ok. The little girl then proceeded to move her chair to the middle of the room while her mother tried holding her chair back. Kinda hilarious to watch :) The next day was the boat race and our boat totally won! Well-Bryan's won but it didn't hold two people...so it was disqualified (pretty official race I know! haha) Robby and I then had to race home so I could make it to work by 4:30. Needless to say-awesome weekend!
