Yesterday for our first official day of spring break, we enjoyed a family outing at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. That annual event always manages to amaze me because of the incredible volunteerism it takes to make it run so smoothly.
Did you know that the HLSR Committee is able to give away 700 $16K scholarships to high school seniors each year as a direct result of their hard work, dedication and service? Our daughter Kaitlyn was honored with a 2011 HLSR
Metropolitan Scholarship recipient and we are so very grateful.

Last night we saw REO Speedwagon in concert after the cowboy events {I know, fun, right?}, and I'm happy to report that after 40 years of making music, they can still rock the house. Right before they took the stage, I stumbled on the fact that there's actually a Random Acts of Kindness program as a part of the Houston Rodeo. On the big screen, we saw the people whose tickets were upgraded because of a patron's kindness. How cool is that?
So spring break continues.

Glad you are enjoying a wonderful spring break. We have a few more weeks left before we get to enjoy ours. Great post and powerful words to remember over at Dr. Jean's blog.
