Rodeo Media
So, for the longest time Naptime Design was involved in many genres of media, but finally, this social “medialite” cowgirl found her proverbial wings and flew. Between my competitive horsemanship that went from beginner English lessons not too many years back, to now owning a couple of amazing horses, I realized that my heart and soul revolves around rodeo.

He said, “I know it is hip to set a few resolutions. How many do we actually keep? It is a pretty poor success record over all… Try to set some goals instead.
