A snowy Sunday

February 2, 2014 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

Snow started falling a little before 8 this morning and kept it up for several hours. Church was cancelled and reports are that the roads are pretty awful. It’s been a nice, relaxing day at home but just a few minutes ago David got called out on a structure fire. I always worry about him…

Fun on the fourth

July 6, 2012 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

We celebrated the 4th of July with friends last night. These lucky folks own a house near the park with a perfect view of the fireworks display. People began showing up around 7 for grilled hamburgers and all sorts of delicious side dishes. It was an unusually nice evening for July. The humidity was relatively…

Hero worship

This past Saturday was our county firefighters association family day and awards ceremony. There were hot dogs and hamburgers, free rides on the carousel and train for the kids, good camaraderie and a great turnout, all wrapped up in a gorgeous day. I’m very proud that my husband is part of this fine group of people who…

A summer weekend

August 9, 2011 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

This past Saturday we picked up the children of a friend (we actually think of her as a relative) who were in town visiting their grandparents and took them to visit David’s fire station. Noah wants to be a firefighter and had been eagerly awaiting this little field trip.  I think he’ll make a fine…

Volunteer Firefighters

October 25, 2010 By Deanna Piercy 3 Comments

David has been a volunteer firefighter and Emergency Medical Responder for the Happyland Fire Department for several years.  It’s a great department with dedicated volunteers who selflessly give of their time to serve and protect the community of Happyland, Oklahoma.  Yesterday the local homeschool 4H group held a fundraiser for the department. It had rained…

A Tribute to the 9/11 Firefighters…

September 11, 2010 By Deanna Piercy 4 Comments

We were each touched in different ways by the tragedy of September 11, 2001.  We all remember exactly what we were doing when we first heard the news and I’m sure most of us spent hours in front of the television watching in absolute horror.  I recall nearly jumping out of my skin at loud…

A Tattoo For My Pirate…

August 4, 2008 By Deanna Piercy 10 Comments

David has been wanting a tattoo for quite awhile so when my brother and sister-in-law said they were going to Dallas and asked if we’d like to go, this seemed like a good time. My brother, Mike, is a doctor and has had two of his three tattoos done at Tigger’s in Dallas. He had…

New Age and Hog Hunts…

August 1, 2008 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

Last Saturday night we attended a fund raising event for the county firefighters association. It was the first time this event was being held so I had no idea what to expect. All I knew was that there would be a banquet and an auction. Despite my best efforts to extract information from the pirate,…
