Texas, our Texas!
 

Texas, our Texas! All hail the mighty State!
Texas, our Texas! So wonderful so great!
Boldest and grandest, Withstanding ev'ry test;
O Empire wide and glorious, You stand supremely blest.

[Refrain] God bless you Texas! And keep you brave and strong,
That you may grow in power and worth, Thro'out the ages long.

Texas, O Texas! Your freeborn single star,
Sends out its radiance to nations near and far.
Emblem of freedom! It sets our hearts aglow,
With thoughts of San Jacinto and glorious Alamo.

[Refrain] God bless you Texas! And keep you brave and strong,
That you may grow in power and worth, Thro'out the ages long.

Texas, dear Texas! From tyrant grip now free,
Shines forth in splendor your star of destiny!
Mother of heroes! We come your children true,
Proclaiming our allegiance, our faith, our love for you.

[Refrain] God bless you Texas! And keep you brave and strong,
That you may grow in power and worth, Thro'out the ages long.

Happy Texas Independence Day! I spent the day educating my first graders all about our great state! Trying to instill Texas Pride at a young age!

Who is going to one or more of the spring festivals here in Texas?

Just to name a few:
Chilifest
Buc Days
Fiesta Oyster Bake
Larry Joe Taylor's Texas Music Festival and Chili Cookoff
Texas Crawfish and Music Festival
Robert Earl Keen's Texas Uprising

Oh, and I am so hating that I missed Pat Green at Floore's this past weekend. :mad:

I'm not sure about oysterbake, but I will be hitting a couple of parades, NIOSA, and some other events. I've had my parade tickets quite a while, thanks to my insider. King Antonio and his crew will make a stop at my school also. I can't wait!! Viva Fiesta!

Pat Green at Floore's was a good show. The yankee's with us enjoyed it, lol.

ETA: I'll be at Oysterbake to see Reckless Kelly on the 16th with Cooder Graw. Dont have tix yet. Maybe I need to call up my source. Kitso told me he'd be down for ChiliFest. next weekend.

Paging Mr. Life! Where are the parade tickets this year? :p

If you're down, I can make some calls. Hopefully this year we wont get soaked. You know I'm down for the VIP section with the picnic, and you talking smack about the bands. You have to leave the middle school bands alone. Those kids are only 12 geez... lol.
