Only in Texas




The Class: Heath, James, John A., John O., Kaleb, Ryan, Filip, Graeme, Olivia, Maddie lee, Madison, Hannah, Jullian, Mrs, San Marco, and Mrs. Smith, Mrs. Wheeler
We love Texas!!!!!



Only in Texas do they not have an Easter party for preschool, but they have a Rodeo party!!! For the Houston Live Stock show and Rodeo, people wait all year to get out their boots, hats and jeans and eat turkey legs, fried twinkies and say yee haw for two weeks straight every year. It is not are you going to the show, but how many times and what singers are you watching. Even though Heath is not a true Texan by birth, he can eat a chuck wagon breakfast, do the chicken dance, and wear boots and shorts in true cowboy fashion. He did inform his teacher " Texas is not the biggest state" (said like a true Alaskan):). I helped with the festivities this year and the kids had a great time singing Texas songs, dancing and wearing a bandana. They were so cute, and even learned a little Texas history to boot (no pun intened). Giddy up!! Heath.
