		<description><![CDATA[This last weekend, I went to two shows to spend the weekend with my husband. He had shows in Katy, TX and then Poteet, TX &#8212; about three hours apart from each other &#8212; and a no-brainer for me to attend.
Now, before I continue with my story, two things I want to note:

First, I went out to the cemetery where all my grandparents are buried, and its at the church where my husband and I got married. This location deserves a blog post all by itself, but suffice to say that you can&#8217;t get much deeper into my [...]]]></description>
