The rodeo is full of tons of rides but, being pregnant, I had to sit out of most of them. Granty still went on a lot of them with Stevie, and his friend Shianne.
One of my favorite parts of the rodeo is all of the delicious (although terrible for you) food there is to try. There was even a place called "Fried What?" where they had everything from fried pickles to fried kool-aid!! We tried our fair share of fried foods, including:
fried cookie dough on a stick
fried oreos
fried red velvet cake
and fried snickers (my personal favorite!)
Stevie liked it so much, he had to have two things at once!
After all of that eating, we headed into the rodeo to digest for a while before taking on more rides. I LOVE the rodeo! We saw cowboys riding bucking broncos and bulls, barrel races, cattle roping, and even muttin bustin' (5 and 6 year old kids riding sheep)!
After the rodeo, we stayed for part of the concert, where Luke Bryan performed.
When we got back out, it was dark and all of the lights were lit up across the rodeo. We rode the ferris wheel (I could actually ride that one) and got to see the view from up above.
We had a great time and I'm so glad I got to be there for Grant's first Houston rodeo experience.
We didn't get to see a lot of Fleming over the weekend. Her best friends were in town for The Woodlands Marathon, so she and her friend Shannon spent all of Saturday biking around town to cheer on Emily.
I can't wait to visit again next weekend, and I'm even more excited for Grant to come back two weeks later! We're almost there!!
