Fun in the California Sun

Ok so I have a few minutes to write some thoughts. I have been going 9.0 for a while, and I am waiting on a phone call. So KyLeigh and I jumped in the $$ rig for an adventure. We took King, the ranches stallion to L.A.X. to fly to Hawaii!!
It was a good time, hot in the sun but we made it safely and helped him load on the airline.
After we drove to New Port Beach found a room, then met up with the Kemps. We had an unbeliavable fantastic time. First we had to go shopping to find a swim suit. It's one thing KyLeigh loves is to SHOP!!! I think she must come from another mother. She even had me in the dressing room trying on cute stuff. What a fun time. Off to the beach she is scared of not one thing!! Out into the waves she went, went Conner came they were being crazy on the boogie boards.
We played volleyball, laughed, told a few good stories. What a good time. Made it home safe and back to doing what we love. riding and roping keeping the running shoes warm!!! Good times at the Winn place. Dixon is spending the week with Joe in the basin, they are working hard, and have entered some ameutuer rodeo's over the 4th. Shad has Taylor Boren here., they have been at wrestling camp first of the week and then they are going to rope some days at the double dollar. KyLeigh has been helping Grandma and dad.

State Champion Bull Rider


Dixon Winn 2010 UHSRA State Champion Bull Rider!!! What an exciting week for the Winn bunch. Dixon had a successful state finals in all his events. His hard work has payed off and in the end, satisfaction. He posted a score in the first round of a 76, placing second next to Joe Frost who had an awesome ride of 82. Second round we rode forever!!! And I mean forever, the buzzer didn't ring and it was a trashy bull, Dixon ended up 71 and fifth in the round. Coming into the shortgo we had a lead of one point. He made the ride of his life on With Dr. into his hand and ended up with 81 points. Also winning the calf roping short-go and missing nationals by 3 points. Team roping we roped good in the first round and fell short in the second round, missing the short go. So proud of Dixon and for gritting his teeth and accomplishing his goals!!! So proud of all his good friends, for making some great rides and runs as well. here we come Gillette!!!
