As I tossed around ideas for today's
ABC Wednesday post, I quickly realized that in my world one "T" stands above all others: my home state of Texas. (Sure, I may not have lived there for nearly 25 years now, but it will always be home.) And I hadn't really thought about it that much before today, but I realized as I glanced around the house just how much the Texas pride shines through this time of year.
A few things around the house...
And a few things on the tree...
And the funniest part is, I didn't buy a single one of these things for myself. Apparently, when it comes to Christmas gifts I'm pretty easy to shop for.
Go figure. ;)
Oh, you're a Texas gal, eh? Don't think I knew that. Normally, we OK folks don't root for you UT types, but we're sure pulling for those boys to pull out a win this weekend. ;-) And that stocking is adorable, btw!
ReplyDeleteLOL. My love of UT actually has more to do with their academics than the sports, so I can usually avoid the typical rivalries. (I have a niece that goes to A&M, and we even manage to get along just fine.) The rest of the "Texas love" - well, that's just because it's Texas, and it's awesome. :)
DeleteIf you don't know this song, you should: Lyle Lovett - That's Right (You're Not From Texas), tho I prefer the studio version.
ReplyDeleteYes - I love that song! And now my daughter does too, so thanks for bringing it up. (She sat here and watched the video with me, and now she's running around singing it.) Too cute. :)
DeleteI'd love to visit Texas some day!

It's definitely worth the trip. Of course, I may be a little biased. :)

ReplyDeleteThe door's always open. I'll fluff the pillows for you.
Trust me - I'd pack my bags right now if I could. :)
