Thanks to Mia we are all getting a grand education on Texas as she learns all about her home state at school. We had an open house the other night to see all the work they have been doing as the learn about the state flag, flower, bird, tree, etc. Here is a little trivia for all you non-Texans - Texas has its own state pledge. Ask Mia next time you see her, she knows it by heart. And the Texas flag is the only state flag that can fly parallel to the American flag. Its been a fascinating look into why everyone around here will tell you they are "Proud to be a Texan!!" I can't believe we will have been residents of Texas for 5 years this summer. We are still loving it here, and I am developing a little of my own pride for our great state.
