The fair, the Hoover burger, the rodeo!

Its fair time for the heber valley! mom and dad hoover, nikki and kids, heather and russ and kids, heidi and kids, bryce and stephanie and kids, scott and jennifer, kayla, jodie and me and blake all went to the parade! there was alot of candy everywhere! popsicles, and water passed out too! they would always bring the flyers to me and i would get suckered into taking them! ..."not again!" The parade was fun! but very hot!

then some of us went to the local fast food : Dairy Keen. and there are two noteworthy things to mention!....

one - the fountain drink dispenser!... it was electronic, touch screen, it was crazy! it had every pop imaginal on there! i thought hmm i want a lemonade... so i see the chooses of diet or not. well after that decision it brings me to a new screen of tons of lemonade choices.....rasberry lemonade, strawberry lemonade, cherry lemonade, pink lemonade, regular lemonade, pomegranite lemonade! whooooo! i had to try these. i had both rasberry and strawberry... yum!

two - have you heard of the Hoover burger?! yes, the Hoover Burger... as in Hoover my last name. this is a hamburger that was created by Blake and his brother when they worked there and now is on the menu! well Blake ordered one...... now just imagine this.......  bun, lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, hamburger, chicken, bacon, ham and onion rings with some sauce...... this is a HUGE MEAT burger! ..... i can say i have eaten half of one before.

Yee Haa its rodeo time!!! I went to my very FIRST rodeo! as least one i remember! what fun! big crowd, lots of horses and cowboys/ cow girls! we watched bareback riding, saddle riding, barrow racing , people being pulled behind the horses on leather, roping the cows, the little kids rode around on toy horses on a stick, and bull riding of course! wow theres alot that goes into these, luck on which horse or cow you get, your skill, partners skill! this was very fun! we all dressed up for the occasion too! cowboys hats, dresses, plaid shirts,  and boots! the clowns were there to keep the cowboys safe from the bulls. they were funny. they did an act where he drove out a old plane and straped to the back a saddle for a cowboy to ride. once in the sattle the clown took off, wings blew off and he spun in circles...that cowboy did not last long at all. they did the kiss cam and guess who was the very first to be on it?!...Blake and I! yeeeee haaw!!! after the rodeo they did a huge firework show....very impressive! i can now say..... i love the rodeo!! cant wait for next year!
