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…
Love is All You Need…
This past Friday was a great day for love. We went to Tulsa to attend the wedding of a young lady and her beloved. It was a beautiful church ceremony and a really fun reception at the Hard Rock hotel. Our son, Chris, was one of the ushers. This is him with a dear friend:…
