UTE Stampede

Every year in Nephi, they have a weekend for the UTE stampede. We all went with the Blackham crew on the night it decided to rain! We bought the tickets a few weeks ago so we couldn't predict what the weather was going to be like. Unfortunately it decided to rain so we just toughed it out and went anyway. It wasn't raining when we left Moroni so I decided to wear flip flops. That probably wasn't the best choice but at least I'll know for next year! I think I'll wear shoes because you never know what the weather is going to do! We gathered up some rain jackets and umbrellas at Kris and Kylee's house it hopes that we wouldn't get too wet and made our way to the UTE stampede. Since I didn't have good shoes on, my hubby was so great to carry me on his back to the stands through all the mud. We found a spot in the stands under the rain and began to watch. We weren't enjoying the rain too much so we scouted out some spots under the covered seats and made our way over there. Then we were able to enjoy the rest of the night without getting rained on. My favorite part was when this guy came out with a wild stallion that he had trained to sit in a car with him! I couldn't believe he could train a wild animal to do something like that. It was pretty cool!

Getting rained on but we were still having fun!
