...RODEO 2010...

I know, you are all loving me for my photo saturated posts lately.  Yeah, that's just the kind of amazing blogger that I am, keeps y'all coming back.  Actually, I'm just having to make up for last Fall when I didn't have a camera and therefore was lacking in photo documentation of my life.  Well, no more! I'm trying, I promise! So, without further ado, here are some fun pics from my 2010 Rodeo experience! If you're a Houstonian and don't make an annual trip to the Rodeo, well, you're missing out, and not getting a true Houston experience!  And if you ever need someone to go with, well, I'd be willing to do that, out of the goodness of my heart, just for you, just give me a call!

   Carnival Rides! Bumper cars!

Cliff, Teresa & Rebs on the Big Slide!

Not so healthy Rodeo food!

The 4 of us at the concert!

Cute cowgirls after a fun-filled night at the Rodeo!

...Drowning, Disappointment, Delight...

Well, I'll make this short and sweet, but yesterday Houston was hit by an intense thunder storms. And we were supposed to be going to the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo to see Rascal Flatts in concert!! While we were praying that the rain would stop, we found out that the lead singer from Flatts had laryngitis and had to cancel!!! WHAT???? Oh, I was so disappointed. So then at this point it was, "Do we really want to go?" In the rain? Without Flatts? Well Jon Nichols, Jack Ingrahm and Clay Walker were replacing Flatts. And if I didn't go last night then I wasn't going to get to have my Rodeo experience at all this year!! It's over on Sunday and I'm headed out of town this afternoon!!! So, anywho, since I'm at work, here are a few pics for your viewing pleasure!

While we were waiting for the rain to stop we played Rummikub and took silly pictures (like this).

Funny thing, when Rebecca was taking this picture of me, some guy walked by and told his girlfriend, "See, she's woman enough to take a picture with the boot!"

About to purchase what has now become annually traditional, fried oreos!!!

In the staduim, watching the calf scramble, my favorite part!

Rockin' Out With Clay Walker!

Delirious at 12:30!!!

Super Duper: headed to Temple today for Brady's 5th birthday party!!
Super Pooper: besides the obvious that I didn't get to see Rascal Flatts last night...I guess the fact that Spring Break is over and even though I still had to work this week, it was super quiet around the office, and nice to have a down week, but next week will be back to the usually hustle and bustle!

...RodeoHouston...

As promised, here is my official chronicle of the events of my first Houston Rodeo experience. Let me just say, we had a GREAT time. Seriously, one of my favorite times since I've moved to Houston! I'll do my best to not make this too long, we all know how long winded I tend to get.

I think a photo recall of the night will best do the job.

So we headed to the Rodeo around 5:00. Here's a fun pic we took on the way:

We decided to ride any rides we wanted to before eating (yes, I know, we're old). Any how, we had a fahbulous time on the big swings, you know the ones. Here's a fun pic from the swings:

So after that, it was time to chow down!! Man, there's nothin' like Rodeo food!!!

(Yes, I'm aware I look rediculous in this pic!)

Between sausage on a stick, a funnel cake and fried oreos, we got the full Rodeo experience!!!

After eating we wandered over to where the animals were. Oh, they were cute (but smelley).

On the way to the stadium Rebecca and I decided to purchase a hat!!!

Once we found our seats we watched bulls buck off cowboys, and 4H kids chase down and fight over calves. It was great!! I don't think I had ever seen anything like it!

And here we are in the stadium.

Oh, I almost forgot to mention. We were there to hear Toby Keith in concert. Let me just say, if you ever have the chance to go hear him, DON'T!!! It was majorly dissappointing! He's nothing but a drunk 35 yr old man who wants to have a lot of sex! Yeah, we didn't stay long once he got on stage. But that's okay, we had already had plenty of fun for the night. Next year we'll be more picky about what concert we're going to! All in all it was a splendiferous evening! Yay for fun times and fun friends!

Super Duper: My sister, Kelly, is coming tomorrow!!

Super Pooper: Take-home-test due tomorrow. Yuck!
