Texas Tuesday



Linking up with J and Amanda for Texas Tuesday!

One of the things I love most about Texas is the Southern Hospitality and the over all kindness of Texans!
Texans hardly ever meet a stranger!

A couple weekends ago we were shopping in a little town (Glen Rose, TX) and we met an awesome man! He introduced himself and then talked to us like he'd known us forever.
He'd lived in that town for 80 something years. And his 92 year old brother drove a couple hours that morning to visit him.

I just love that!

And Mason loved him, too! He made the most awesome train noises and even let us video it. My father in law has it on his phone, so I'll have to get him to send it to me.


My Father in Law talking with him



He so many great stories to share and had us all captivated.
He had such a gentle soul
...and...
A heart the size of Texas!!!!

  5. What a fun story... I never meet a stranger! My kids always ask me, "Do you know them?!" lol My six year old gets it though, because he's the same way. And he knows everyone in our small town, more so than the rest of us even!
