Yesterday my cousin Jillian and I went to the Houston Rodeo. We had such a great time hanging out and just catching up on life. We talked so much that my throat was a little sore when I got home! She really holds a special place in my heart. We have been close our whole lives. Yes, we're cousins and most people don't understand how cousins can be as close as we are... But, most people don't have my family. The first cousins on my mom's side are really close, and we've always been that way. We're extended family, but it's like we're immediate family. Anyway, I love her dearly and am so glad we spent some time together.
I met Jillian at her apartment, she gave me the grand tour of her place, and then we headed out to Houston. We used a park and ride shuttle service which was really easy and totally worth it. When we got to the rodeo, I took Jillian to the boutiques and the cattle showing. We had baked potatoes with chopped beef for lunch/dinner. It was delicious! We watched the entire rodeo from start to finish... Well, kinda... We probably did more talking than watching. Our friend Cara was also there, so she met up with us to say hi for a little bit. I hadn't seen her in forever! It was so good to catch up despite the shortness of it. Brantley Gilbert was good, especially if you like the rock/country genre. I loved his version of Dirt Road Anthem, and his cover of Dust on the Bottle. Needless to say, we thoroughly enjoyed our girl time, margaritas, the rodeo, and Brantley!!!
