Welcome Oprah, Texas loves you!!

Renee and I were so excited to see Oprah today!  We had to be at the park before 9AM to get into the main stage area, but we couldn’t make it However we stood behind the barrier and was able to get awesome pics of’ Oprah, Gayle, Nate Berkus and Ali Wentworth, who performed with the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders and special performance by Martina McBride. (I was closer to Oprah then I was to Britney at her concert weeks ago)

Oprah can tape me anytime. lol

My favorite three people…

Hey, I almost wore yellow today like Oprah.

Oprah did an early surprise visit Sunday & purchased boots and a cowboy hat, for today.

Ali Wentworth on the right side of Oprah as a Cheerleader!  She did an awesome job too.

I really wanted a candy apple

But instead I had corn with cayenne pepper…Holy Yum.

Renee tried the Fried Oreo, she said it tasted good.

They did look good, not greasy like I had pictured

Later we made our way to the petting zoo

Most of the animals had been fed already so they were not interested in our food.

It was still fun

One more…

We visited the horse stables

Watched the ”African Acrobat Team” perform.  These guys were awesome.

Sampled food:

jalapeno peach jelly

Rum cake

cheese quesadilla

Met the Borden Cow

And her adorable sleeping calf whose 4 months old.

Tired from the adventure we said farewell to Big Tex

See  you next year…

I’ve been slacking in fitness since I was sick this week but I got back on it  today.  I did 45 minutes of The Firm followed by a 3 mile run…Crazy but I was on fire.  Now I am pooped.

I had oats w/ coconut and strawberry Chobani mixed in, after my run.

Now,I’m off to pick up eats for a small ”Scary Movie Night” I’m hosting at our apt.  I’m not gonna lie and say I’m serving fruits and veggies. No, we’re having our candy and popcorn tonight…in moderation.  I’m actually not a big candy person and I don’t care for popcorn that much either, but everyone loves treats while watching movies.

I’ve got my trusty bottle of H2O.

Followed by some Pop Chips as I run errands.

(Yes, I do love this yellow shirt, I wore it to work earlier this week.) lol

Dinner Menu before guests arrive

• Sweet potato fries
• homemade black bean veggie burgers

In other news…

”I Love Oprah”

Have a Fabulous Sunday.
