I am proud to say that I am a member of The Living Stones Bible Fellowship Class of First Baptist Church in Richardson.  I can not begin to tell you what these dear ladies mean to me and to each other.  These are ladies that love the Lord, and naturally show his grace and mercy […]

Charley and the Leopard Print Lunch Bag with Hot Pink Trim

Posted on: Aug 26, 2012        In: Life and Love        With: No comments
We were sitting in the Renaissance Hotel Ballroom as Darrell Davis was making his grand entrance into the room for his retirement gala (And what a gala it was!).  People are applauding and loud music is playing, when I  noticed a call on my phone from Cathy, Ever-Lovin’s fantastic sister.”  In the confusion, the call […]

More than once I have mentioned Super Sister.  It is the absolute truth!  There is nothing she can not do or make.  Well, today I am here to tell you that she is also a Super Nonna. What I am about to show you is one of the cutest things I have ever seen. Aubrey and […]

Aunt Lois’ 100th Birthday Party

Posted on: Aug 22, 2012        In: Life and Love        With: No comments
Aunt Lois is one hundred (100) years old, or thirty-six thousand five hundred (36,500) plus days old, or eight hundred seventy-six thousand (876.000) plus hours old, or fifty-two million five hundred sixty thousand (52,560,000) plus minutes old. (The plus is for leap years.  I hope I did my math correctly.) Staggering isn’t it. I can not imagine […]

Theater Camp

Grandson Hot Rot attended Theater Camp at J. J. Pearce High School recently.  Can you imagine over seventy kids  (4th – 9th graders) working together for one week to produce a show?  Sweet Mother of Pearl.  It gives me a headache just to think about it.  I do not know who I feel sorrier for […]

David and Alene’s Golden Anniversary

Posted on: Aug 13, 2012        In: Life and Love        With: No comments
Within the last week, we have been to two Golden Anniversary receptions for two super couples. Fifty years ago, I enjoyed being a part of my cousin Alene’s wedding.  Her marriage to David was exciting.  Aunt Lois made – yes, made by hand – Alene’s beautiful wedding dress.  The bead work took hours and hours […]

What a wonderful day of celebration.  Tonna and Winston have been married fifty golden years! Love their wedding picture.  Good looking couple! Sweet Mother of Pearl, we are not old enough for this to be happening to our peers.  I remember going to a golden wedding anniversary somewhere up in the Panhandle when I was […]

Volunteering at Buckner

The senior citizen’s ministry at FBC Richardson sponsored a morning of volunteering at the Buckner’s Humanitarian Aid Distribution Facility.  What was very appealing about the opportunity was the fact that we were encouraged to bring our grandchildren. Hot Rod was willing to participate and thought well of the idea of being a missionary, and getting […]

Number One Son has a blog called The Doodle Daily.  Most days he does a doodle and sometimes a commentary.  It is fun, and I wanted you to know about it.  Click on the above link, look through the archives, and you can subscribe if you like. Dreaming of vacations. Of course he would remember his […]

I Can See a Rainbow

We were enjoying the company of my nephew and his beautiful family while eating at the Cotton Gin in Prosper, Texas. Suddenly we hear his two young girls jumping up and down and yelling, “Mommy, Mommy, Mommy, I can see a rainbow – I can see a rainbow!  It’s a rainbow!  Come here, come here, come […]
