There are some things I don't love about being in a small town. Not all of the conveniences...The lack of having a grocery store is the a big one! (ours just closed) But, there are so many things I do love. I just had a conversation about this with a friend lately and I really do love it. The ability to get into Dallas quickly but more importantly, the ability to GET OUT just as fast. We have the best of both worlds, a golf course in the front yard and a 1/2 acre in the back. Can't complain. It's quiet, people are friendly....and more importantly to my kids...we have the Cotton Festival. Not a huge deal to those who don't live here (not even to some who do), but my kids can't wait for it each year. I mean really, who doesn't love a corny dog and a funnel cake? We had a great time again this year, a little hot the first night, a little crowded the 2nd and a little hurricane rain the 3rd. All in all, we got our fill and will be ready for it again next year!
