Fun Saturday

Saturday was a fun, busy day. I finally went back to Zumba class (hadn't been in 2 weeks because of the snow/ice). I made a decision NOT to go to the Affair of the Heart this weekend. Too many other things to do. Joe and I went to the city early in the day so I could go and watch the Oklahoma Challenge Ballroom Dancing Championships. I sat in the ballroom of the convention hall and watched for an hour or so while he went down to his office and did some work. I thoroughly enjoyed watching the couples dance. I wanted to get out there with them!! It was the Latin competition, which is my favorite - Cha-Cha, Rumba, Swing.

We then left and went to the Oklahoma City Stockyards to meet up with some friends. We were going to eat an early dinner at Cattleman's Steakhouse but I think everyone else in town for the PBR was thinking the same thing. The wait was going to be an hour and a half so we left and went to Texas Roadhouse which was a couple of miles away. The couple (who are both young enough - late 20's - to be my children) brought 2 of their children, a boy and girl (from different marriages) who were both about 6. The little boy brought me a dozen pink roses and gave them to me. He was sooo cute! After we ate dinner at Texas Roadhouse, we all went to the Professional Bull Riding event at the arena. Here are some pictures -- Sorry the pictures aren't real good quality. We had great seats up in the suite but far away from the action. I had to zoom all the way out and my camera is not that good. This is the gate where they let the bulls go back inside.
Here's one of the riders/bulls.

Another rider/bull.
