Pennridge Lane. TX.

Think of your favorite place to visit as a kid.

Well, I'm back at one of my MOST favorite places... my aunt and uncle's house outside Houston, TX. Growing up I longed and dreamed and envisioned getting to come here. They have always had horses, cows and dogs... and that was enough to make me swear that I was born into the wrong family and I, in fact, belonged here rather than in North Carolina. They were so gracious to come let me stay for extended periods of time over Spring Break or during the summer and boy oh boy... I LIVED for it. My sweet uncle would let me just tag along with him in his big truck as we hauled horses around, worked cows, check out tractors. I remember riding from their house to their farm listening to 'Click and Clack' on NPR, and I was happy as a clam to just listen and take in the views of those huge Texas skies as we drove. I remember going to the grocery store with my aunt and getting loads of Blue Bell ice cream, which I proceeded to consume for breakfast lunch and dinner. All that to say, being back here floods me with sweet memories and I'm just drinking it all in.

I drive to Austin today to see more family and friends, and I've got some shoots lined up that I'm simply pumped about! On top of all that, Ross flies in on Thursday to come join in the party, and we will all be heading out to the Farm this weekend. Sigh, I couldn't be happier. God bless Texas.

AH! So amazing! And how you describe the Texas skies and Blue Bell ice cream is almost too much for me to handle. I can't wait to see what else the Lone Star state holds for you and your photography.
