After driving through South Dakota and Wyoming we reached the beautiful Emigrant, Montana aka Big Sky. This will be our home for the next three days, and I couldn't be happier!!
As soon as we got in we put on our cowgirl boots and headed to the Smith house. The Smiths are an awesome family who we have been friends with for years. The dad, Vernon Smith, is an actual horse whisperer and they live on an exquisite ranch with over 50 horses and numerous other animals. They had us over for a hearty dinner before we made our way to the Rodeo, which is the biggest thing happening in Livingston all year!!
The Rodeo was awesome and it was surreal to be so close to bucking bulls and stir crazy stallions. Anne-Christian and I went with our new friends, Vern's kids, Austin( my only other friend that is a girl with the name Austin) and Ford, and their friends Dylan, Terry, Mary, Jack, and Eric. I think being with kids our age made it 100% better b/c as cool as it was to watch, the fact that they somewhat tortured the stallions and bulls was a little disheartening.
Like any good Rodeo the person sitting next to me threw up, we got rained on, I fell down the stairs, and to put the cherry on the ice-cream I dropped my phone in the Porta Potty and actually reached down and pulled it out. Wading through human feces with my hands definitely scarred me for life, and the best part is that my phone doesn't even work yet :(
