Great photo!
Golly, I love this town!
We have so many different faces to celebrate. Like McKinneys go wild with hair color! :)
And has anybody been to Pho on Grand on a Saturday night? I can go in there for a pick-up and be the ONLY Caucasion person in there. Everybody else is speaking Lao or Thai or Vietnamese (One lady was as bleach blonde as a bottle can get you -- and she looked GREAT).
Once, I was in there and these kids (not much older than Ransom here) were crawling all over a table full of grandparents, parents, and what looked to be siblings/nieces/nephews. So the meal comes, and the apparent youngest mom pulls out a CHICK FIL-A BAG of kiddie meals for the children!
That moment taught me that our nation is built on a weird mix of conformity, cultural distinction, and individuality.
And I'm loving this family photo. :)
