Texas Stampede 2011

It's RODEO TIME!!!

This year  we celebrated 10 years of Rodeo, Concerts, and Kids with The Texas Stampede! The Mission of The Texas Stampede is to improve the quality of life for children and their families. In the last 9 years, they have contributed close to $3 million to Children's charities in North Texas, with about $2 million going to Childrens Medical Center!  
The Texas Stampede features an exciting no-holds-barred competition of Bull, Bareback and Saddle Bronc Riding, Barrel racing and Team Roping. 

Chris was the President of the Texas Stampede this year! We had family and friends from all over (Chicago, California, Missouri, and all over Texas) come out to show their support...Such a fun time to get together and for such a good cause!!!

We are so proud of Chris and all of the hard work and time he put in to make The Stampede one of the best years yet! We were also so lucky to have so many family and friends support us this year at the rodeo, concerts, by purchasing raffle tickets, and attending the Gala! It was wonderful to have you by our sides for such a wonderful cause and a good time all weekend!  We are blessed by you all and love you more than you know!
