Cokeville, WY

On our way up to Cokeville Wyoming for the annual 24th of July celebration!

First thing in the morning is the parade put on by the "townspeople"!
All homemade floats and costumes!

Following the parade each year is the LDS church devotional,
where apostles are known to be special guest speakers!

A trip to Cokeville isn't complete with out a little shooting!

I love me some RODEO! The rodeo up in Cokeville is similar to the Oakley Rodeo in Utah, but this is Wyoming, so the cowboys and cowgirls are real! Plus it's even better when you're boyfriend is related to the majority of the Rodeo participants! A rodeo isn't a rodeo without some bull riding! Yee-haw!

(he's got his "cowboy hat" on...)

And finally, Church in Cokeville... Aaron is in his element fishing in the beautiful river surrounded by the gigantic pines, clear water and still air. I had an amazing experience walking down the road that follows the river, observing God's creations, set to my Sunday music playlist on my ipod. I could do that every day for the rest of my life. Absolutely serene.

We had a great time! Can't wait for next year's celebration!
Thank you Char for being our host!
