My birthday isn’t until Thursday but David and I did our usual “weekend at the Skirvin” celebration this past weekend. We went up Friday evening after David got off work, stopping in Norman for dinner at Panera Bread so we could also buy cherry danish pastries to take with us. Because…CHERRY DANISH PASTRY! After we…
What I’m Into (July 2015 edition)
I haven’t done one of these in ages. Seems like a good time to get back in the habit. Since it’s been so long, I’m going to include a bit from the last of June, too. Celebrations July, for our family, always begins with our daughter’s birthday. Isn’t she gorgeous? We celebrated the 4th of…
Fun times around here…
Last week was busy and lots of fun. First up…we celebrated our daughter’s birthday on Wednesday with dinner at a nice restaurant in a nearby town. David, Chris and I were there, along with our son-in-law, niece and her boyfriend. We had such a nice time together. Our beautiful daughter Thursday we went up to…
I’M GOING TO PARIS!!!
This past Friday night was one of the best nights of my life. I’m hesitant to even blog about it because there is no way I can do it justice. However, I’m going to give it a whirl. First we went out to dinner with these beautiful people: David and Joy Winchester Then we…

We headed to “the city” (that’s Okie-speak for Oklahoma City) Friday afternoon. We didn’t get out of town until 3…
Celebrating the Good Life
This is my birthday week and I’m spreading out the celebration. On Monday we went out to dinner with our kids and three couples we’ve been friends with for ages. The four kids ate dinner with us and visited for awhile before leaving the “old folks” to our own devices. We ended up chatting at…
Memory Lane Monday ~ Our Sunshine Baby
Today is our daughter’s 26th birthday. I simply cannot imagine where the time has gone because it just doesn’t seem that long ago that I heard the words, “It’s a girl!”. Yes, there actually was a time when most of us didn’t know the sex of our babies until they were born. I don’t know…
Love and the City
I often wonder what I ever did to deserve the life I live. This weekend was simply wonderful in every way. David and I had planned to leave Friday morning around 10 but it was more like 11 before we actually got out of town. We spent the drive reminiscing about the early days of…
