Blue Jeans and Cowboy Clothes

So, it's HLSR time.  For those of you NOT in Houston and have never been involved with it, that's the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.  I grew up going there every spring, great memories of staying in our silly little camper with NO generator in the parking lot in the shadow of the Astrodome, in the camping spots reserved for Committeemen, directors, exhibitors, etc.  We would go to school, drive there after, and then sleep there, and drive to school the next morning!  Let's just say it was a really great time!  I believe just after I graduated from HS they stopped having the campsites in the parking lot due to the lot always filling up.  They don't have to worry about that anymore as they use the old Astroworld site that is now just a big pasture with NOTHING on it as overflow.  (That's a whole different story!)

Anyway, last summer I volunteered for Habitat for Humanity and got paint all over my best good wrangler jeans.  SOOOOO worth it, but now I needed a new pair.  So, that's what I did over lunch today, got some new Wrangler Jeans.  I was SHOCKED and AMAZED that in a store this size...

SOOOO much stuff!  Notice all the pink hats...

There is only ONE jeans booth for, well lets just say "AVERAGE SIZED WOMEN" (just so you konw, the average size of jeans women wear is 14).  Most of the ladies/juniors jeans were sizes like 1/2 or 29 x 34 (tall and skinny models need only apply), AND, some of those were priced over $100!  Yes, they were really cute and OF COURSE I wish I could wear them, but HELLO?  What about the larger mass of women (yes pun intended) that need bigger jeans?  Just asking!

Oh, and also, to all my LUCKY friends who have LITTLE GIRLS, and this I mean with the upmost respect.... YOU SUCK!  Out of that whole store above, there was a half a rack, yes only 1/2 a rack of little baby boy clothes...

Yes, this is it, 1/2 of this rack is baby boy, OOOOOOO!

Which of course My mother has already bought most of it for my son, so to make my husband happy I'm sure, there was nothing new for me to buy for my boy. 

But, the staff there was great and they have EVERY style of boot you can think of there, which makes sence since it IS Cavender's Boot City.  :)  And, the Jeans I got do fit quite well!  Wrangler Aura really really fit me well!  No gap in the back, mid rise (thanks!!!), boot cut (duh!) and sliming.  What more could a girl ask for?  "Pair of jeans that fit just right!"

Anyway, I feel better now, and I'm ready for the Rodeo this weekend! 

THE END
