Worth It

 We are on spring break, but that doesn't mean Reed takes a break from running.  

He took this picture yesterday morning and posted it on his running app.  I couldn't believe how amazing it was.  The altitude might be doing a number on his time, but I think the view is worth it! 

2 More

 We've had 2 more rodeos this rodeo season.

Jason and I went to see another Jason, Jason Aldean 

And when you've sat in the same seats for the last 9 years you get texts from your friends sitting on the other side of the stadium.

Then I went to one of the best shows since Pitbull and Kid Rock.

New Kids on the Block were the absolute best! 

I'm not sure we could have had any more fun.  

In between

 In between all the rodeoing we've been able to fit in 2 track meets.  

Reed placed 1st in pole vault in both meets.

In the 1600 he placed 

6th with a time of 5:32

and then this week he had a new PR with 5:25, but still came in 4th. 

In the 3600 he placed 2nd last week with a new PR of 11:13

This is what you look like after you run a 2-mile PR.

And this week he placed 4th.

So far so good this season, and I think we have 2 more meets left. 

All in One Day

 We had about a million things on the calendar for Saturday.  Kyle and Reed had their first day of umpiring.  They did 2 games in the morning, which I forgot to take a picture of them so all I have is Reed in the back of the car on the way to the rodeo.  Kyle was already changing clothes.

When we got there the boys took off to ride rides.  Jason and I happily did not ride rides.

This is what happens when you let Kyle in the funhouse wheel.

They played games and won giant animals.

And then we went to the rodeo

And since on the weekends the rodeo is in the afternoon, Jason and I were able to go to a gala that evening for the museum.  I guess I never took the kids to the museum here because it doesn't look anything like what I remember.  I remember there being a giant dinosaur when you walked in, but I didn't see a dinosaur the whole night.  The theme was tropical/cruise/ yacht rock, so we went full-on Miami. Jason went as Miami Vice, and I went as The Golden Girls.  Of course, I want to be Balance, but I'm guessing I'm way more Dorothy.

 This article was in our community magazine this month. It was fun to be flipping through and see him!

Camp Fav

My favorite camp counselor showed up on their Insta page yesterday.

Pre, 1st, and 2nd

 It's rodeo time and we've been hitting it up hard and heavy.

I guess you can call the BBQ cookoff pre-rodeo since it isn't exactly the rodeo.  We missed last year, so we were happy to be back.  We literally can only handle 1 night once a year.

Then we did the 1st night of the rodeo along with every teenage girl in Houston with Parker McCollum performing. 

And last night was night 2 with the old folks, as it was Brooks and Dunn.  

We have a few nights off before we head back again.
