~ Last Day of the Rodeo~

Hi friends~

I wanted to share our last day at the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo. It was last Sunday and a 'local' band ZZ TOP was playing~

I took a picture of the sign as we came in on the bus~ we used the park & ride which I highly suggest because we didn't have any traffic and the bus ride was only a little scary...lol.

So, when we arrived Sunday ( remember the Genius & I were there Saturday for Brooks & Dunn ) we had a MASTER plan of what we wanted to do before the Rodeo started.

The Genius wanted to ride the mechanical bull~

Here she goes....

Look @ her....she's doing GREAT~

Whoops....there she goes..........down.....lol.

Great job Baby Girl~

I have to admit....I did not ride the ferris wheel....the lines were long and Mister convinced me it was ' boring anyway'. I secretly think he just didn't want me to claw him to death when at the very top. :) (That was the baby ferris wheel by the way )

Maybe next year????



Then we watched EXTREME bull riding..... I didn't take any pictures. I was too busy jumping up & down screaming....seeing the cowboys get thrown off the bull was a little scary @ moments. We did see a local bull rider when $55,000 for 8 seconds, the night before. Am I in the wrong business? j/k.

Time for the show!


The stadium was full.....we had great seats
( thanks to my father in law...he ROCKS )




ZZ rocked, too. They even had white furry guitars....

After ZZ Top performed....there was one more thing the Genius wanted to do....

I think it was called THE SLINGSHOT~

HUH? Why in the world would you want to do that????

Being the good father he is~ Mister decided to go w/her. YIKES!

Awe~ look @ them holding hands~

There they go~

I find that if you take pictures it's less scary to watch~

The slingshot goes straight up @ 100 mph in 1.2 seconds...they also did a somersault....and bounced up & down a few times....

Here they are coming down

( see their arms in the air....they're crazy....but I love them )

Here's a picture of what the slingshot looked like~

Then it was time to get back on the bus~ after Mister won me another cow :)

It was a GREAT day~

Hope your day is special!

Hugs~ J
