Texas Proud

  The saying goes, "You don't just move into Texas, it moves into you," and that's definitely been true for our family. From our children saying y'all to our love for TexMex, we have settled here both physically and in our hearts. 

One thing we've learned about Texans is that they love their state. They put the shape of the state on everything and they have fierce Texan pride. Here, the Texas flag flies side by side with the American flag, and everyone proudly claims their home state wherever they go.

Since we love Texas too, we have been making some Texas themed items we want to show you. We also want to share some of the other Texas things we've seen.

The Texas waffle maker is ubiquitous at the hotels here. They probably taste better than regular waffles, too.



Even the stamps on the eggs are Texas shaped!
We made some Texas magnets for out last craft fair.


And we don't want to forget the Texas Tic-Tac-Toe.




So many businesses have the shape of Texas in their logos, it would be hard to share them all.



Some other things Texas is famous for: Longhorns, armadillos, the Alamo, Bluebell Ice Cream, delicious barbecue, pecans, bluebonnets, and football! If you ever come to the Great State of Texas, be ready for some hospitality and lots of state pride. Happy Thanksgiving y'all.
