I went to the NASA's Johnson Space Center

in Houston.

I had lived in Houston just one year.

But it was first visit.

My children like Kids place.

They enjoyed play gym.

We joined Tram tour.

It was soooo excited.

There were Real Moon Rocks in museum.

I could touch the Moon Rock.

Sliced Rock was very smooth.

Many many people touched it,I think.

Run for the Rose

My sons and husband joined Run for the Rose.

They ran 5 kilometers.

They looks tired and got some ice-cream.

Bluebonnet

I went to Chappell Hill with my family.
I saw beautiful flowers on US-290.

Red,yellow,white,pink,
and blue one is Bluebonnet.

FM 1155 in Chappell Hill.
Amazing blue carpet in there.
Looks like Lavender farm in Hokkaido Japan.

Japanese funny proverb.
"Hana yori Dango"
Cake before flowers.

As the proverb says....
We went to the BlueBell.

No tours on weekend.
We took a rest at ice cream parlor.

I tried pecan nut ice cream.
It was soooooo good.

It is almost coming Cherry blossom in Japan.
Kumamoto Castle is my best viewing spot.

Rodeo again

I went to the Rodeo again.

This time,I enjoyed RODEO&concert.

It was the last day of Rodeo.

So I could see Champions.

Bareback Riding,Barrel Racing,

Saddle Bronc Riding,Bull Riding.

Each Champion got $25000 !!!

Alan Jackson concert was also great.

But my children wanted to go Pig Race.

So my husband and I gave up the concert.

We ate TEXAS sized food.

Big and yummy.

RODEO

I went to the RODEO with my kids and friends.
4 adult and 12 kids party.

At first,we had to take a tram.
First time Tram!!
It was difficult for me to got rail ticket.

Reliant park was sooooooo big.
I was worry about lost.

Pig racing was so excited.
Little pig looks very cute.
There was a swimming piggy too .

Kids like the petting Zoo.
They enjoyed pat and feed.

I saw many kinds of animal in there.
I like baby pigs,especially drinking milk one.

Kids was crazy about ride and game.
And we tryed some food.
My teacher Heidi talked about Fried OREO.
I found it and try!!!

I like it,but normal Oreo&Milk is better.

My favorite Rodeo food was cowboy burrito.
Sliced beef,onion,potato inside.

THE LORAX

 "The LORAX"

Original author is Dr.Seuss.

It's starting on March 2,was his birthday.

My kids wanted to see the movie.

We went theater TODAY!!!

My children don't like 3D,so we got regular.

AMC was $6 each.

It's happy price for me.

In Japan,adult need 1800yen.(about $20)

and kids need a half of it.

My kids enjoyed "LORAX" very much

and me too.

"It's my favorite movie I've ever seen."said son.

They play LORAX every day.

There are three Lorax in my house.

"I am the Lorax.I speak for the trees."
