We went to the rodeo y'all

Earlier this week Rachel and Chad presented us with the following invitaiton, "Hey the Rodeo is on Saturday. So we want to go." And Zach and I were like "(*shrug) Alright then." We usually just do whatever Rachel and Chad tell us to do and we don't ask questions.

So to the Rodeo we did go. And we decided to dress for the part.

Bull riding is pretty hardcore. We tried to look up the bull riders on the way to the stadium on Jenny's iPhone so that we could cheer for the sexiest one, naturally, but it didn't work out. So instead my favorite part was when they announced the bull's name because some of the names were: Tater Salad, Handsome Jack and Thug.

Towards the end it got a little boring because I don't know if you know but all bull rides look pretty much the same. So then really your only choice is to take pictures.

And pretend you're a cowboy with chew in his mouth.

Also, these were our boots. Mine were $6 and Zach's were $10. We got them at Good Will, but we went to two different Good Will stores, and at first it was fun but then I got grumpy because I remembered I don't like thrift stores and that's a lot of thrift stores for one hot Saturday, so then we were just two angry people buying boots which wasn't fun, but kind of funny later.

Then we went to QT y'all. At the end of the night I wished I would have said y'all more; but I did keep saying, in my best Texan accent, "Your mother's dead Lou-elyn ." Which is from No Country for Old Men and not once did it make sense but I'm just really good at that quote.

I love the outfits! You guys make really good cowboys/ cowgirls. Maybe that should be your new look.

When I saw the first picture I thought "Wow, those pants are not flattering on Erica" but I figured out (pretty quickly) that was Chad's butt not yours.

Now you are officially ready to visit Texas but go back to Goodwill first and get yourself RED boots -- trust me on this...

PS It is much easier to visual identify the sexiest bulls than the sexiest cowboys. Enhanced Wranglers can be deceiving...

Lol. Too bad you look cute, which is why I hated dressing up with you, because I would be ugly and you would somehow come with your hair done and a cute outfit, can we say bumblebee?

Okay, now I know for sure that we are secret twins. Because I hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate thrift stores like no other. Amanda tricked me into going to one with her because I didn't want to walk home because it was too hot. I hate them. I feel like I am digging through someone's dirty laundry.
