Shopping Our Stash Challenge 24: Cowboys/County/Western/ Sports

How 'bout them Cowboys?  When I first came up with this challenge I was thinking of FOOTBALL season because that's what crisp, fall weather feels like to me!  Being from Texas and growing up watching the Cowboys, it was common for that phrase "how 'bout them Cowboys" to be heard quite often!

Just taking a moment to remember the glory days of Roger Staubach...

Thank you.


So that's where the idea for a challenge to use anything sports related, cowboy related  came from- and we stretched it to include anything CLOSE to cowboys or sports!  Think horses,  cows, ranches, farms, pick up trucks, tailgates, cowboys/cowgirls, cattle, bulls, rodeo, saddles, OR anything to do with sports- football, soccer, swimming, fishing, yoga, racing, cheerleading, skating,  walking, jogging, etc.  See how easy this is?

This week the SOS Crew came up with these for your inspiration:

Crystal

So saddle up this week and join in! I am sure if you dig thru your stash you can find SOMETHING that works for this challenge!  Thanks for stopping by!
