God Blessed Texas

Or so we were told by country music act, Little Texas, anyway.  That is debatable at this point, but I will be able to provide an in-depth review next week.  The husband and I (along with his parents) are making the trip down to Houston this afternoon to spend the 4th of July with my parents. 

I have never been to Texas, so this will be an interesting experience since this is now "home" to my family.  I am keeping an open mind - I love new travels!  Plus, I am pretty excited to check out the new digs.

Texas is a clean slate for me as I pretty much know nothing other than the following:

• Kevin Durant went to college there
• Drew Brees is from there and his high school was the inspiration for Friday Night Lights
• Friday Night Lights
• The Dallas Cowboys will always be America's team
• Oil
• George Bush - both of them:

• Celebrities like Kelly Clarkson, Matthew McConaughey, Beyonce, etc. 
• It is hotter than hell
• The list goes on, but becomes stereotypical and slightly racist - I should probably stop here....

Instead, I leave you with this on the eve of our nation's independence:
