Let's Rodeo




Susan and I got the pleasure of being invited to help out bringing the Rainbow House group to the San Antonio Livestock Show and Rodeo. The pics were taken for a promo by AT&T . They are Susan and her brother David, and me and my compadre Michael. We got to check out some livestock, had some grub ( oh, and I bought some sugar free peanut brittle!) and then went to see the show. First up was Extreme Bullriding. Talk about a concert atmosphere. There was fire, lasers, explosions, and smoke(those were just the nachos we ate,lol).Actually it was a pretty awesome show and all the residents were having a blast. David was hollering everytime something loud happened and Michael was all smiles. It does these people good to get out and have a day like this and I was glad to be a part of it. After the bull riding event, we got to see the first part of the concert from some Canadian country group, but we didn't finish watching the show because some of the guys and gals were getting tired. Michael was dozing off, so we knew they had had enough excitement for the day. It is really awesome how everything worked out to get these 12 people into an event with little problems.it made it so much more enjoyable for all who participated.
Susan's birthday is the 27th, which will make her the big 5-0! We are going to Lake Charles to check out the new Casino and have a nice dinner. After that we will go check out our Livestock Show on Thursday and have V.I.P. tickets to see some lady called Reba. I'd prefer Ted Nugent, but he don't rodeo,lol. Hey, the tickets were free, so why not!
Other than that, ol challenge number 9 is stumbling along. I have had a lot of obstacles this go around like overtime, no time, ran out of time,lol but I'm still plugging along. Luckily, no weight gain.
Hope everyone is doing well.
Have a great week!

    sugarfree peanut brittle? Isn't that peanut butter? And to answer your question about what the critter eats ... those little cows you have? Seen the babies nurse, the way they buck and tug? Yeah ... on the receiving end of that lately. Yeowzahs.
