Bloom Where You're Planted: Spring Break, Day 5

It's Rodeo time y'all! There is nothing like the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo! Biggest and best rodeo in the country! And it also just happens to be the biggest and best part of our Spring Break every year! We always go with the Foster girls and this year Addie's cute friends joined us for all the fun!

I love to see the belt buckled little cowboys, the bedazzled cowgirl wear, all the fantastic people watching and of course the animals, especially the babies. But Sa and I's highlight is the food! Seriously deep fried Oreos complete me. This year we also tried one of those giant turkey legs and both girls LOVED it! I had to fight them for a bite. When Keagan was ohhing over it, Sa said "she is DEFINITELY your kid!" But nothing says I love Texas like a deep fried Oreo, Snickers and Twinkie!

The kids highlight is with out a doubt the massive carnival! Games and gazillions of rides fill the gargatuwon Astrodome parking lot. Both girls won 3 stuffed animals each and then Sa took Keags to play a really tough game. Sa kept telling Keags not to be sad when she didn't win right when Keags threw the frisbee around the big floating rubber duckies head! Everyone but her was shocked that she won the huge minion that is as big as Riley!

She also rode her very first roller coaster ever! She was super brave and even put her hands up! And she climbed to the top of the Super Slide all by herself! Next year I'm determined to get her to do the Muttin Bustin since she is so brave! Riley preferred the much more mellow rides and the people watching from her stroller. She actually cried when Keags went on the roller coaster because she was scared for her sister!
