Big city livin'...

I tend to forget where I live. Maybe because

I actually live outside of this huge city. 

Maybe it's something like living in Queens 

or Brooklyn but saying you live in New York

and people taking that as NYC. I live in a 

suburb of Dallas, I do live in the DFW area, 

but not actually in Dallas. Where do we draw 

the line, ya know? Amarillo was Amarillo and 

once you were in Canyon you knew because 

the 10 minutes of nothingness tended to tip

 you off. Here, all in 20 minutes, you can be 

in Richardson, Allen and Plano and not 

even realize you ever left Richardson at 

all. It's huge and it's somewhat confusing if 

you, like me are directionally challenged.

But, it's fun and there is always so much

to do, so many places to eat, zoos, shopping 

galore, museums and cool events! I used to 

think I'd never leave Amarillo, but once I 

did, I realized there just might be a big 

city girl who's been hiding inside of me 

the whole time. 

Hubby took this one today while out on a 

job! 

I took the photo above last year around July

4th because we were coming back into town 

after a night with friends and I was completely

amazed and starry eyed as we went through 

downtown Dallas. I literally forgot where we 

live. It's so beautiful and BIG, you forget,

I don't know how, but somehow, you forget.

Here's to 22 years of living in my hometown, 

Amarillo, to 4 years of living in "Dallas" 

and to so many more adventures anywhere He

might take us!
