Hello everyone!! I’m writing you all today from my house in Jersey!! I’ve been resting and relaxing, and really not doing too much of anything!! It’s been about 3 years since I’ve had any significant time off, so I’m really enjoying my freedom!! So I’ll just fill you in on a few of the highlights over the past few weeks!
The first place I was off to was back to see my family in South Dakota! The last time I had been back was Christmas time, and so I was really itching to get back and see my nieces and nephews! I attended a few of my nephews football games, along with seeing some of my nieces’ volleyball games, they’re growing up so fast!!! Geez! My nephew is driving and is in H.S. already!!! I can remember when I was in H.S. and college and they were all little kids/babies running around at my games! And of course all my teammates loved having little kids around!!
When I was back one of my highlights was when my niece and nephew took me riding on their horses!! My niece and nephew both participate in rodeos so they were pumped to take me out and show me their skills on the horses. I’ve always loved riding horses and it was a lot of fun to get the horses out on the open prairie and let them run a little!! My nephew actually does steer wrestling and team roping, and he thoroughly enjoyed roping the horse’s legs while we were on them and giving me a minor heart attack! Although I still don’t know how he always managed to get the rope of the legs of the horse before the horse ever noticed the rope was even there!! Needless to say, he likes “horsing” around with his auntie!! The horse’s names were Spinner, Hooker, and Harley. I won’t tell you which one I rode, so we can keep the jokes at a minimum!! haha.. anyways.. the other fun thing we did was go bowling and have a slumber party together!
Cody is also now in SD and the kids have given him the name of “the dog of Love”, and so he slept the entire night cuddled between my two youngest nieces on the floor, tooooo cute!!!
So after a nice little rest in SD I was off to NYC!! It’s always nice to come back and see friends, and go into the city for some entertainment. I recently went to the Pink concert at the Garden, it was quite a show!! I love seeing concerts at the Garden! I’ve seen Madonna a few times, NSYNC (yea I said it!), Cher, Whitney Houston (in the theatre), and a few others.. I think in another lifetime I’ll be an entertainer!! I love the shows they put on! I could sit and watch people dance for hours!
Sooo that’s what’s been going on in my world!! I’m going to continue to rest my mind and body til something interesting pops up, then I’ll be off doing whatever that is!
Til next time.. Blessings, Becky

Make sure you check out the new pics in the gallery of me and the horses

hey Hammon i was about to comment about you being in NYC enjoying the flavor of the hometown but what caught my eye was what u said about you being an entertainer in another lifetime; so let me tell you that a couple of years ago i was thinking those same thoughts when a producer friend of mine ( God rest his soul) made me see that it is never too late to be whatever you want to be. that numbers (AKA age)are nothing but excuses we human being put in our mind to give up in our goals so with that said it is never late for you to be an entertainer . alright now check out the very first project i did as a video producer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jK-JdiHeCg .I did that video when i went to your hometown in dec 2008 but i reedited the video again . is not that professional but is a start so enjoy cause you happened to be my inspiration for my very first project…
At last you have found time for yourself! It is very pleasant to see that you enjoy a life out of work! As always a faultless and cheerful blog! Thanks!
Hi Becky, i’m glad you’re enjoying yourself. i’m guessing you rode hooker but hey, that’s just me. you are def in my fave five and i can’t wait until the season starts up again. All the way next year? I heard your team was canceled over seas, are you planning to play somewhere else
So glad you are able to enjoy some time off. Miss you in San Antonio!!!
