Book recommendations?

June 24, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 5 Comments

This doesn’t happen often but I’m having trouble finding a book that really captures my attention. I have a whole list of books I want to read but I’m not really in the mood for any of them. I think I want something kind of light…maybe a bit humorous…set in the South or a small…

I do…

June 23, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

This afternoon David and I attended the wedding of my cousin’s son. It’s always sweet to witness young love in its beginnings.  The whole wedding was quite personalized but I do believe this “takes the cake”: We had a wonderful time visiting with some of my out-of-town cousins and then went out for a late…

Oklahoma Sky

I took the following pictures as we drove home from Joplin on Monday. We had a bit of rain and then the skies gradually cleared. I was totally blown away by the beauty of our Oklahoma skies.

The Blue Whale of Catoosa

June 18, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

I’ve been hearing about the “Blue Whale of Catoosa” for quite some time and after reading this Buzz Feed post, “The 45 Best Things About Living in Oklahoma”, I was determined to see the whale for myself. It occurred to me as we were driving up to Joplin on Sunday that we probably weren’t too…

Memory Lane Monday ~ Cheeseburgers and Milkshakes

June 18, 2013 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

My family took a vacation every year while I was growing up and we always drove. I’ve never been much of a fan of the usual breakfast foods so if we stopped for breakfast at a diner or someplace like Denny’s, I usually ordered a cheeseburger and chocolate milkshake. Apparently my mother had done the…

For my dad on Father’s Day

June 16, 2013 By Deanna Piercy 1 Comment

Dear Dad, Last year on Mother’s Day I shared some of the things I appreciate about Mom and this year I decided to do the same for you. I know I’m not very good about verbalizing these things (and I’ll bet you know where I got that) but I hope you know that I love…
