We went to most of the rodeos most of the time. When Brooks and Dunn were in town we got the VIP sets. Through my job, We could go back stage or where ever we wanted to. They were preforming at the Pasadena Rodeo Grounds, we talked to Ronnie Dunn for about an hour, he was very nice, we met his wife and his step daughter. My husband loved the rodeo show. He liked to watch the bull riders, he thought they were the most amazing, brave cowboys. He would look down at me, where I was hiding my face in his chest, because I was scare to see them get hurt. I would hide there until he whispered in my ear that it was ok to look. I didn't like to see them get hurt and some would get hurt. He always had his arm around me. He laughed out loud and say " Girl you are going to miss the entire show!". If we went to a scary movie I would do the same thing, he use to tell people that I missed the whole movie hiding!. He would laughed at me when I found a bug in our home and carried it outside to let it loose. I couldn't stand the thought of killing anything, I think he loved those little things about me. I was always protected by three brothers and strict parents. It took me a while, but my wonderful husband taught me so much about life throughout our years together. He had a rough life and grew up long before his years. He knew I had not been exposed to that kind of life and was sheltered to a point. I was always the designated driver for everyone. I obeyed my parents, our friends thought I was funny. they all had more freedom, than I did. I always worried about coming home late or breaking rules set for me by my parents, they didn't have to worry. One night we went to Gilley's to meet some of our friends. I never had any alcohol in my entire life. While at Gilley's my husband was in a deep conversation. I got really thirsty, my girl friend told me to take a drink from her bud light, without really thinking I picked it up and started drinking some of it. I was so thirsty I finished about half of it, before I put it down. I started feeling funny right away. Everyone seem to be moving in slow motion, they were laughting and pointing at me. My girl friend was daring me to ride the bull, all the time giving me a little push in that direction. I remember laughing and heading for the bull. With some help from a stranger, I was seated on the saddle, ready to go. But before I could get started, I felt hands pulling me off, I realized it was my husband. He carried me back to our table. He was furious at all our friends, he hollered at them and told them if they wanted to ride the bull to go ahead and leave me alone. He blamed everyone for getting me drunk on a half can of beer. He never blame me for the incident. We laughed about it the next day, he said " Girl,I can't take my eyes off you!". He was so protective of me, during our entire marriage. I hardly ever touched the stuff again. I was growing up as his wife and loving it every day, He loved having me as his wife, he felt he had someone who loved him back, something he had very little of when he was growing up. I was so happy being his wife. We were just teens, so in love with each other. We would always hold hands or he would have his arm around me all the time. Some of our friends were jealous of our devotion for each other. they hated that they didn't have us to run around with some of the time. We grew up with a love for dancing. We went almost every single week-end. We always had a good time. The legend continued to follow us where ever we went, it was the cowboy that we into the woman's bathroom, or pulled her off the bull, sometimes it was things that never happened. The story got bigger and bigger, as time went on ,more was added and passed on. It seem like we were always being watched on the dance floor. People would always come up and shake our hands, they would tell us how much they loved to watch us dance . . It just seem that people were amused by the little things we did. We just got a reputation that people created for us. Strangers who came to the club from out of town, would ask us to have our picture taken with them. We were just down to earth couple, like most anyone else. I was the city girl, he was the cowboy. These memories will never died, my broken heart will never mend, my love for Ed will never end.
