Most Memorable Achievement-Winning Pendleton in 2010 was my first big win. Houston 2011 was by far the most money I have ever won. Both are huge accomplishments for me as Pendleton is so historic and it was their 100th anniversary and Houston made me realize my dream of going to the NFR!

Favorite Motto-Not really a “motto”, but just do what feels best for you. There’s no set recipe for life so go with the flow.
Favorie Event-Barrel racing! My husband team ropes and calf ropes so I enjoy them also.
Favorite Cowgirl Tuff Outfit-Everything! I love the length of the pants and how the shirts are long enough to stay tucked in and the sleeves aren’t too short.
Thanks to everyone that participated in the 4th Annual Cowgirl Tuff Barrel Race. Overall we feel that it was a major success, we always try our best to make the event fair and enjoyable for everyone. On Friday night we had over 180 entires, on Saturday by the time we ran the Barrels and Pole Slot races we ran over 500 runs and on Sunday we had over 450 runs made. We had 427 contestants in all! Wow!! Thanks everyone for your cooperation and patience, we put on one of the largest barrel races in the mid-west! We wanted to end the weekend on a very high note with the awards ceremony but in our haste to get people on the road and back to work and school we made a mistake and figured out the average awards incorrectly, we gave an additional 16 awards to people, most of those people were in the 1 and 2D. We are going to make it right with the people that we left out in the 3 and 4D, within the next several weeks we will be shipping you your awards, we need time to get the additional awards together.
Congratulations go out to:

Most Memorable Achievement-Winning the title of National High School Barrel Racing Champion at the end of my senior year in High School. I had only been running barrels for 3 years, so it was my first huge accomplishment in the western world of barrel racing.
People would be suprised to learn: -My journey with horses actually began in the English arena by riding and competing in Dressage, Show Jumping & Cross Country Eventing. My goal at that time had been to one day qualify for the U.S. Olympic team

Favorite Motto-“That which does not kill us, only makes us stronger”…. Seems to fit sometimes.
