Who Me, A Cowgirl?

Gabe asked me out on a date for Saturday night. To something these westerner's call a RODEO. Then, he thought he should share photos of mutton busting with me. Trust me, you don't really want to know, but if you must know, you can click here to read about it. I think it looks abusive, and have informed him that no child of mine would ever, EVER bust a mutton, or whatever it they're doing, but nonetheless, I'll go and be a bystander. So, I guess what this midwestern girl is trying to get at is this: What do you do at a rodeo? How should I dress? How should I act? I really have no stinkin' clue! Oh yeah, it gets even better! There's a concert following the rodeo with Diamond Rio, whom I'd never heard of before, but I'm assuming they're country. I am not a country lover like most people are. Anything else, but please, do not make me listen to that stuff. Do you see why all of this is such a big deal to me? I am intimidated, to say the least.

***Just to warn you, in case I'm not around a ton in the next week or so, please do not be alarmed. We are getting things ready for when my sisters are here in a few weeks, and so my internet may or may not be connected. I'll be back to normal soon, I hope!

You wear normal everyday clothes. Don't make an effort to look like a western or you will just end up looking silly. Be comfortable and enjoy the show! I was skeptical but really loved my first rodeo.

U can wear whatever U want :) some people dress in cow-gear....but most wear jeans and t's :) Diamond Rio have been around for awhile....mostly ballad type songs....if U know anything about Rascall Flatts....kind of old school of their style.....try and have fun! :):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):)

Just wear something comfortable! I went to rodeos a long time ago, and they were actually quite fun, if not a little stinky. :) I also went through a country music phase in middle school and loved Diamond Rio!

I use to love country music and I have seen Diamond Rio. They were pretty good. I met them after the concert too. They are really nice guys. Rodeos? Can't say I have been to one. Hope it was fun!
