Houston Rodeo Cook-off 2014

My husband and I have not been to the Houston Rodeo Cook-Off in many,many years. So I sent out all alerts to all my family asking for tickets to this wonderful event and my co-worker came through.

At first I was sorry that I asked, and as the week went on I kept thinking this is not the best idea I have had. But listening to all the people talking it up, I started to get excited and thinking about what I was going to wear. At first I said jeans, boots you know the whole outfit...than reality set in WALKING all night in my boots oh heck no! I go with tennis shoes..boring...says you are an old person...but comfy old person! 
Then I remembered my walking sandals,OOOOH they have a bit of a heel and I can go all night perfect

As we entered the metro buses my dear sweet hubby asked, since it's Friday night and we are going out can we count this as our date night? I laughed and said well I guess. And then he followed up with for the month! Lol NO! Nice try!

What a fun time we had, seeing people that we have not seen in a long time and walking and looking at the different booths listening to all the music. We found our tent and got to eat some fabulous bbq and lots of beer!  We decided to take a stroll through the different streets and we came upon a few of our kids! We wondered around with them for a few hours and got more booth entries. 

As the night started to end for us we started back towards our ride and oh my...the sea of people!!! 
I'm glad we left when we did Nd my feet hurt! Good night cook-off til we met again!
