Camouflage is the way I see Life!

Now yes as you can see I am a country girl. I love to hang around with the boys and go to derbies, do a little mud slingin' here and there, but there's one thing you can NOT count me out of is HUNTING! I love hunting ever sense i was just a little squirt. I mean come on who wouldn't love to sit in a car and drive around looking for the big brown animal. It doesn't just have to be Deer you hunt either it can be any game that is in your area or maybe you would like to leave your state and go find a better game. When you have the chance go to another country and hunt their game. Now many girls do not like the sport called hunting. Many girls do not even consider it to be a sport. though to me hunting is a sport.



I love the adrenalin rush you get when you see one coming out of the trees or on the run. I like waking up early in the morning and putting on my camouflage and orange and coming out to look for the TIRTY- Point Buck.I know I am a Little bit crazy for all  of this but, to me it's a way of life.

Now this upcoming deer season hunter have crossed a problem. There is a disease going around and a lot of the deer population is dying out. The Game and Fish Department of North Dakota says  that one tag will be given out to everyone who is drawn. They also say that there possibly might not be a second drawing this year so if you do not get drawn then your out for hunting season. Sure there is other seasons for different game but, hunting is the most popular. I mean if i don't get a tag this year i might just cry. :( I missed so many years because I wasn't old enough and by golly I do not want to miss another one.

I do not just do deer hunting though around my lovely state. I have many opportunities to go out with friends and hunt other game. I love it when i get invited along with the boys to go out and do some hunting. When i am hunting with them it's a bonding time. I mean sure we have other times we get to bond but, hunting brings us closer together cause most girls would rather throw on make up and get all dolled up then skip the make up, put your hair in a ponytail, and throw on some dirty jeans and camouflage top.

So, If you like hunting like me here's some steps I want you to fallow to make it a safe hunting experience for everybody.
1) Do not shoot unless you have your hunter safety
2) Do not point a gun at someone even if unloaded
3) Always make sure your gun is on safety while in a car
4) Do not consume alcohol while hunting
5) Make sure you do not have a shell in the chamber unless shooting.


Now go out and have some fun if you would like to know when you can shoot certain game here is the North Dakota Game and Fish Department to look them up.http://gf.nd.gov/about/season-dates.html

Take you for a ride on my BIG GREEN TRACTOR :)

Farming what is it? The direct definition is the cultivation of animals, plants, fungi, and other life forms for food, fiber, and other products used to sustain life.[1] Agriculture was the key development in the rise of sedentary human civilization, whereby farming of domesticated species created food surpluses that nurtured the development of civilization. The study of agriculture is known as agricultural science. Agriculture generally speaking refers to human activities, although it is also observed in certain species of ant and termite



Now when I get asked what is farming I simply think of the Spring first. Spring because we get to finally get back into the fields and take off all the winter crops that we do not harvest during the fall because they are not in their prime yet. I also think of being able to do rock picking in the big GREEN tractors. I love sitting in the tractors and going up and down that long dusty field getting all the rocks out so they do not block seeds from growing. It gets very enjoyable when you have friends that come sit in the tractor with you. Some days if you get stuck in a tractor when the days are hot and you have no air condition you wanna just fall over and collapse. It can get very hot and muggy in that little cab your sitting in.



When the end of the school year comes it seems like everybody in my small town is in the fields. If you would like to hangout with one of us well you better come jump up in the tractor. It seems like when i am in the tractor some of my friends get mad cause in some of my areas i don't get service so i won't get their phone call or text and they can't get a hold of me. which is dumb because some of them don't understand all the things we have to do when we are in the field. The worst part is when you break down somewhere and have to wait till you get one of the boys over to help you out and get the tractor back up and running.



When summer comes it seems like i am always running and doing something. It seems I am running into town to pick up a part or I am running back to the farm to get us something to eat or drink. I don't mind though it's something i like to do. When i go back home for farming it seems like i am where i should be. The great outdoors in the rural life is where i am suppose to be. Its weird but the quote most of us use when we are out there is "We are finally in God's country!" I like driving the 4 wheelers and dirt bikes out and around to the boys but, most i live operating or riding in those big GREEN TRACTORS. Yeah, I got friends with tractors.:)



The best time about farming though is when it's almost harvest time and you look out at those rolling fields with the sunset behind them. all that you can see that comes to it is the beautiful lavender flax fields swaying back and forth right next to the amber waves of grain. though when harvest time comes and all the dust is flying up it becomes a little sad. knowing that the sight of those crops wont come again for another year. :( Though the smell of taking f the crops is an essence of smells you can not make come alive in a perfume or Cologne. It's a smell that you just have to wait and smell again the next year.

Why Boys?

So ladies we all have taste in different types of boys right? Though why does it seem like all boys are the same. It seems like you can never find the guy who has all the qualities you want them to have. Though you find those guys and think they are the one. You start talking to him and he seems so nice to you and then the talking up starts.

Ryan Schekler "Skater Boys"
"Hockey Boys"
 "COUNTRY BOYS"
You go to your friends and are like OH Johny said this and Johny said that. Then you got all your girls in AW that's so cute mode. Though once Johny knows hes got you wrapped around his pretty little finger he knows that's when he can start being a big old JERK like every single other BOY!!! Sure there is many guys that don't understand why we all think they are all the same. Though they are the ones giving us the reason to think that. I mean who usually gets screwed over when parents get separated. The girls do it seems like you always end up with less then the guy and you somehow end up with the kids, Which is good because you would rather be with them then have them leave you for their dads. I know from personal experience that my mom did not want my dad to have us. We were all she had and she loved us. My mom gave us all she had, she would go to the end of the universe to find us and help us out. My mom wasn't only a mom to me but, to all my other friends. She was my hero, my strength and my inspiration. Though my dad screwed up and the marriage was over I don't hold it against him. My life did change though and to me my father figure was thought out to seek my brothers then for protection and guidance. See boys you're still big meanies when you get older but there is always a way to change that. Boys just don't understand that we go threw a lot and that we do a lot to keep things going. Sure there is some girls who don't deserve your heart and we understand that, but those girls who do we want you to see that we want you to love us for us. In my heart I know my dad loved us and he did love my mom at one time I saw it that day when we laid her to rest. I now see as a young adult that relationships don't always work out even though you give your best. I will never hold the struggles I face against my mother or my father. I know though that them splitting up only made the relationship between my brothers and I a lot stronger.

As life keeps going boys soon leave the boy stage and hit the men commitment stage but, that doesn't always happen. Some days boys are just dumb and us girls put up with it but, that can also be vice- verse. In our weakest moments we look to the ones who are there for us the most. Through life I have learned that you will lose friends over break ups or over boys but it will happen at any time. My relationships have made me who I am today and I am not afraid to say I have trust issues. It's the fact those boys have shown me that they are not the right guy and that someone else is out there who's going to pick up those pieces and show me that there can be a Happy ending to my fairy tale.

What really gets me going!

Have you ever had those people who think they know you but they really don't? Does it ever just really bug you that they sit and talk to their friends about you thinking they know everything about you. I absolutely hate that. I hate how people sit there and talk about me and think they know me when they only have me on Facebook or have talked to me once. They think they can talk about your life and say mean things but, they really can't. It's not like I am going around spreading rumors about them. I hate how many people think it's okay to spread lies. I love to be honest and when people ask me if I was talking about them I am honest with them of why I said it.

Have you ever thought that you had a good friend but, in the end they just back stab you? Though yet you still seem to share everything with them. Some how I always get into that situation. I say to myself I am not going to tell that person what I did. Yet, in the end I always seem to do so. It just isn't right yet I can never figure out why I do it. I feel like if I do not share what I did with them then I feel like I am losing them. Though why would I wanna have a friend who shares all my secrets. I don't so I just start to slowly ignore them. Yeah I know I shouldn't do that but, who cares I feel like it's the best thing I can do.


Now there's another thing that gets me going. When city people say "You're just a wanna be hick." It's like excuse me I at least work on the farm when I go home. I can drive a tractor go mudding dirt bike in circles around you. There is no reason to call em a wanna be hick it's more like half  of the people at Davies are wanna be hicks. Though where I come from we are not hicks. We are small town kids who know what to do with our life and know how to work for our money. We do not get our money just handed to us like half the kids in Fargo do. It's pathetic and for them to rub the money in a persons face. It is just ridiculous because honestly I'm fine with my apartment. I mean we can at least afford it we don't have to take any loans or mortgages out on it unlike all the people who think they are rich. Half of these kids who drive fancy cars wouldn't have them if their parents were not taking loans out constantly. It's funny because i bet if anyone of these little rich snooty people miss a payment the bank could have all their cars and houses in no time.

So as you can see I can really get going on some things. Though I am a very nice person I don't really like to show my mean side in public I hide it till i get home them express it. People just need to learn that the world it not all about them. Though this is life and drama and all that comes along with it so I suppose you just have to life with it. The famous acronym "YOLO" Thanks guys for reading and I hope I got to you in some way.

Derby:)

VROOM VROOM  It's Derby season coming up soon. That means nights are starting to get later and getting more dirtier. I love to say I'm a proud cousin to watch on the side of the banks from the pit crew watch my cousins and their friends go hard on the other team. I like the nights sitting out in the shop talking with the boys and beating up the car. Though before you start derbing you must go through some very important steps to even start.
Here's your to do list if you're going to start.
1) Go out and find an old car! I'll help you get started click on the link and look through these. http://www.bismanonline.com/automobiles
2) When you have got the car start beating the sides and taking out the windows
3) Start welding the drivers door
4) next take out all the inside and make sure no glass is in it
5) Take off the hood and undo the whole motor.
6) Get on the computer and start ordering parts *Make sure you order more then you need you never know when you might blow a gas kit
7) Wait for them to come in then put together the car
8) when she runs good start putting new seats and interior back in
9) Start painting it
10) Enter in the derbies
11) Go ham on the other team and take the money home with you and your teammates!!!

There's a lot of work and dedication that takes place to be on a derby team. You must pull your own weight and do your part as well as your partners.I love the Adrenalin all the boys get when we wake up on derby days and load up the cars on the trailers and head off at 8 in the morning. They know the risks that can come from this sport but, they love to just have fun. Quoted from Wyatt Allmaras on team FSU "It's the thrill you get slamming into another car, how you and your buddies come to just have fun!" Hunter stated, "I like waking up throwing on my team shirt and dirty pants and knowing that me and the Allmaras boys could take it all home!" The thrill of going out and watching them makes the derby all more exciting. Though summer nights get late it's the thrill and Adrenalin rush you get to live for. This summer I am hoping to watch team FSU go ham on many other teams and take home the money. If you would like to see any of the derby's this year go on the website and you might just see me sitting on the side of the bank watching these boys Get-R-Done!http://www.usademoderby.com/2011schedule.pdf

Cowboys Do It Best :)

Not many people understand the way of the cowboys! They think that they don't even have it rough what they do for a living. Have you ever stepped into the BOOTS of one?

You probably haven't. Those boys put their life in danger everytime they get on that 1000lbs. animal. Their daily life is nothing compared to some of these causual days that others do. When they step foot on those Rodeo grounds for the day their heart feels enormous and the adrenlin starts to kick in. The worst part though about it is having to be a parent or even worse a significant other. The fear we have as they put their life in the hands of this beast. It is okay to watch till something goes wrong. Just last week I went to the PRCA Rodeo in Fargo,ND at the FargoDome and I witnessed one of my good friends get hung up.


I was video tapping his ride for him but, then it all happen. He rode about 3 seconds then as he fell off the side his hand got hung up underneathe the rope. His feet were caught underneathe the beast and kept getting stepped on. As soon as all of this started I dropped my phone and sat in my chair starting to cry. He had to be hung up for a good 4 min. trying to get his hand out. When he was finally realeased from the rope he took a couple steps away and fell down. His chaps and jeans fell down a little bit. I talked to him later that night and he said,"I'm sorry I tried getting out but, my feet kept getting stepped on underneathe and I couldn't get them up to get my hand out."

Watching all these boys ride rank just to make bank scares me but, for them it's their lifestyle. Everyday when they go out and practice they find all glory in it. It's not just a game for them it's a lifestyle.So before you go and talk mad stuff about them remember they do it because they want to not because they have to.

To live the cowboy way you must be born country. You can not just wake up and say I am going to be a proffesional bull rider today. No! It takes time and it takes heart. You have to be willing to put your life in danger and your life on the line. There's things you must think about when you're going to do this and if you are go hard or go home.

These boys say the best prayer before they ride and here's what you should recite to when you're going to try and ride.
As I live the Cowboy Way,
Protection is what I pray,
I don't know my Fate,
Outside of the gate.

Remember its a lifestyle and it's where you come from it's not something you just get up and do. If you were meant to do it you would have started a long time ago.

These boys Ride Rank to put Money in there Banks! :)

If my ride sees trouble,
Send Angels on the double,

For in you the Lord I rest,
Let my life pass your test.
By pure grace I am saved,

Lord, ride with me,
That's the Cowboy Way,
And what bull riders pray.
