Brooke and I divided and conquered this September! I had the amazing opportunity to attend the Sonoita rodeo and had a blast, it was great to catch up with some of my sash sisters! Brooke attended the Navajo county fair and rodeo, where she got to queen alongside both of her sisters… how special is that!?!?

As always,

With so much love and gratitude in my heart, Your 2026 Cave Creek Rodeo Days Queen Jaelee Mernaugh💕💕💕

Last week I had the pleasure to attend the Miss rodeo Aberdeen pageant as well as 2 amazing rodeo performances! If you were at the pageant earlier this year you heard me talk about my hometown of Aberdeen South Dakota, being able to be apart of this rodeo was truly something special not just because it was in my hometown but that my mom was the rodeo queen there in 2001💕💕 I had an absolute blast representing Cave Creek and had the honor of riding Wayne in Monday nights performance and Tank in Tuesday nights performance, those boys did so good for me and were fired up!! Thank you so much to the stock contractor for bringing all of the queens horses to ride! And a big thank you to everyone who made this rodeo and pageant happen!!

With so much love and gratitude in my heart,

What an amazing 4th of July week us queens had!! I had the privilege to ride in the world’s oldest rodeo in Prescott, being able to help with grand entry, 50/50 tickets and running hot laps!! My horse JB did absolutely AMAZING at his 2nd rodeo!! Braelyn was also able to be boots on the ground at the world’s oldest rodeo! Now this 4th of July we divided and conquered, Brooke attended the round valley parade and rodeo as well as the Taylor rodeo and had a blast presenting flags with her sister!! I can’t thank everyone enough who make these rodeos possible and a big thank you for having us❤️🤍💙

This past weekend I had the amazing opportunity to attend the Flagstaff Pro Rodeo! It was special to be back since I was their teen queen in 2023-2024! I can’t thank the committee enough for always putting on an amazing performance and welcoming everyone with open arms💕 something really special was I got to Queen with the Teen Miss Rodeo South Dakota who is from close by my home town in SD!! I also got the privilege to ride my gritty mare Roxie, as well as my sweet gelding JB and they both took such good care of me💕💕
