So, the past few weeks we have been noting some funny and yet interesting differences between people from Texas and those from Colorado...thought I would post a few for giggles! Seriously - no getting offended or anything cause we love those in Texas and Colorado!!!
Texas: You NEVER go to the store in your PJs or work out clothes
Colorado: Pajama bottoms are more the norm when dropping kids off at school, grocery shopping, etc...or work out clothes!
Texas: Rarely does a woman leave the house without make-up...
Colorado: If a lady has make-up on you ask "What's the special occassion?"
Texas: Nice Jeans/Slacks are worn by men on Sundays
Colorado: Jeans are the norm; except in hunting season where Camo or Blaze orange rules!
(This one has had us giggling ALL DAY)
Texas: If one's water is turned off for more than 2 hours; they will receive MULTIPLE offers to come over for showers!
Colorado: If one's water is turned off people just figure it's no different than camping or hunting season - no bigs!
(Thanks to my friend Tina Hendrickson for this one)
Texas: If a child has to use the potty at the park and restrooms are closed - mom drives frantically to a restroom.
Colorado: If a child has to poop/pee at the park and said restrooms are locked - they use a tree and it's all good; Call of the Wild baby!!!
Texas: Beef - It's what's for dinner!
Colorado: ELK - it's all we know!
Texas: When going skiing, bundle up from head to toe, wear ski clothes while driving to ski area, and then after a few runs - sit in the lodge and enjoy the scenery!
Colorado: When going skiing, throw on a t-shirt and shorts grab your gear and ski from open to close with only a few breaks!
Texas: You're Republican and have no problems cracking Democratic jokes!
Colorado: In order to avoid conflict - DON'T discuss politics!
Texas: Shorts and flip flops are worn from March to October and only in warm weather.
Colorado: Shorts and flip flops are acceptable attire year round...emphasis on the FLIP FLOPS!
Hope you enjoyed! Again, no other purpose than to give you a laugh! Hee heee!

It' so funny how drastically cultures can differ state to state! I noticed it big time when moving from Alaska to Texas!
Haha! These were hilarious and so true! I got so many funny looks this "winter" when it was 60 degrees out, everyone else had on boots and sweaters, I had on t-shirts and flip flops. And you know how I feel about the PJ thing. :) I don't really mind not seeing flannel snowman pj's pants in the line at school or the line at the grocery store anymore. Though here in Austin wearing workout stuff is NO big deal! But you must have your make-up on when you're wearing it...
