We have been anticipating this trip to Texas for quite some time now. It has been a year and a half since we traveled back to The Great State and for many reasons this one seems like it has the potential to be the best one yet. The kids are what make it so exciting. They have heard us go on and on about our love for Texas and it is neat to see them long for "home" too. Abigail is now old enough to understand that these are her roots. Today we drove her by the home where she spent the first year of her life. She didn't understand why she couldn't go in and see her old room. She is curious and asks to look at pictures of Mommy and Daddy when they were little. We get to watch our own children get excited about the things we loved growing up...nights on the back porch, trampolines, 4-wheelers, sunsets and starry night skies that extend forever, family and friends, a real snowcone, Taco Villa, Tex-Mex in general, the 4th of July festivities. Lots of memories in this small Texas town I tell ya.
