Just a girl from the Upper Left trying to live a crazy life as simply as possible! I eat, workout, write, rodeo, hunt, hike, explore, repeat. The views expressed by the authors of this blog is the author's alone and do not represent the views of anyone else.
I think that as we continue to grow older, we drift further away from the opinion that we know everything and begin to find the location where we realize everything we did wrong. I am fortunate to get to work in the Capitol, learning about politics, and growing as a young agvocate (agricultural advocate). I... Continue Reading →
It's hard to explain how it all came about. There can be so much and so little drama in the rodeo queen world but I have diligently done the best that I can to help as many young women as I can, to help them enjoy their time as a state titleholder, but to also... Continue Reading →
