Welcome to Texas

I will definitely post some pictures later, but we took a 8ish hour trip to go to my cousin's wedding, which the girls were also the flower girls in. We had SO much fun, and I have lots of good stories, but I will share just one at a time! The girls all do really well traveling. They really do. We always say, "Girls, you need to go to the bathroom now, cause it's going to be a long time." Then, usually just an hour or two down the road, we stop at the bathroom...not for any of the girls, but usually for Autumn, and sometimes for me. So really, the girls are better travellers than we are in some senses!
Well, we brought TONS of snacks and game boys, Nintendo DS, and notebooks and such to keep them busy, and it did just that. On the way to the wedding, the girls were so excited that they could not sleep, so we let them play their games. Of course when we crossed the state live, we honked, because we always honk when we cross the state line. So I told the girls, "Girls, put your games on pause and everyone look up because we are about to cross into Texas. Everyone look up...we are almost in Texas! Look girls...you want to see what Texas looks like!"
Of course A immediately starts looking for cowboys, then Autumn spotted the same building the girls spotted...it was the most noticeable building around. Let me describe this building to you. It was a little building all painted white, making it very very bright. The sign in front was white with big red letters. The building had (in big HUGE letters written across the front of it) "XXX" and the big huge bright sign said "ADULT VIDEOS"
Of course.
Of course.
The girls had their pretty little faces stuck to their games, oblivious to the scenery around them, and I, me, the smart woman I am, had to make a point to draw their attention to the naughty store. Oh my! I just couldn't believe it.
WELCOME TO TEXAS GIRLS!!!
Oh, and just so you know, A did get to see her "real" cowboy. There was a man riding his horse on the shoulder of the highway. Good for A!
