I believe she might be the prettiest cowgirl in Texas. Miss Olivia does love a costume and Go Texan Day is yet another opportunity for her to dress up. She and Dad picked out the attire yesterday and she wanted to sleep in it last night.
I hope her belt buckle doesn't cause her to lose her balance! Oh, I predict a summer full of pink cowboy boots, whatever the occasion.
In honor of Go Texan Day, let's give away a book written by a Texan shall we? Kay Whitt's Sew Serendipity to be exact.
Don't be concerned- she has no Western projects in the book! They are all gorgeous skirts, jackets and dresses made in her beautiful style with excellent patterns and instructions. To win a signed copy of this book, leave a comment by Wednesday, March 2, by noon Central Time. Why don't you tell me in the comments if you have ever owned a pair of cowboy boots and on what occasion you wear them. I bought my first pair when I moved to Houston and I wear them once a year to go to the Rodeo.
First pair of cowboy boots: age 3, Barbie brand. I got the whole cowgirl outfit for my birthday and sported it around town every day for weeks.

I had a pair when I was in 5th grade. I used to tuck my jeans into my boots. I must have looked so ridiculous!

Awww, I am late, but will tell you my story anyway.... I have a pair of red cowboy (girl?) boots, which I was given my my mom. Technically, they are dance boots, because mom used to line dance. I usually wear them on Halloween with a cowgirl costume, and on other select occasions when I want to feel a little extra spunky.

Never had cowboy boots, always wanted some though.
