We were on our way to Crossfield for Savannah's first competition as she tries for the Crossfield Rodeo Queen. She was scheduled to take part in a public speaking competition at the Rocky View Lodge. Savannah, Breanna and Erika were each to speak for 5 minutes to a room full of seniors on the topic of "Who I want to be when I grow up." But on our way there. driving down the Deerfoot we actually ran out of gas!! Savannah was freaking. She was going to miss the event. I told her to calm down and not worry. She had asked me earlier to pray that we would make it on time and I did. We started walking toward the off ramp. I called Bev, the chair of the Rodeo Royalty Committee and told her our situation.
About 15 minutes later, Rita, another committee member drove up beside us and asked if we wanted a ride! She was coming from work in Airdrie and was on her way to the competition and Bev had told her to watch out for us. So we got there in plenty of time and Savannah and the other girls did a great job.
