Crazy Rodeo Weekend

This weekend was the Ranch Rodeo Finals in Amarillo. Casey's ranch is not able to compete in this rodeo, but he entered a horse to show on Saturday. Our full weekend turned out to be super busy with crazy weather in the panhandle!

Thursday night Casey took Avery to the rodeo in Amarillo. I went to Borger to play Bunco and Taos stayed with my neighbor.
On the way home from Bunco, it was pouring down rain, hailing, and there was TONS of lightning. Everytime the sky lit up with lightning, I prayed that I didn't see a tornado out there! When I got home and was picking Taos up from our neighbor, we noticed a huge grass fire on the ranch. The rain had stopped and now there was a fire! Thank goodness the wind was blowing away from my house so I wasn't too concerned about evacuating. The fire trucks came just as it began raining again. Thank You God for sending more rain to put out the fire. It continued raining all night and then as the temperature dropped through the night, it started to snow.... crazy.
So we woke up to this Friday morning... By Saturday, the sun was out and melting the snow away!
Bundled up as we walked into the rodeo Friday night :) I think I've said this before, but THANK GOODNESS for the double stroller.

Saturday morning, we were there again to watch Casey show his horse. He did great! No pics of him because I was videoing.
