Did you think I forgot Day 5 of the “Welcome to Fall” challenge? No, I just decided to take some pressure off myself and postpone the final day. You see, David and went to Tulsa to see a Disney On Ice Friday and it would have meant staying up even later than my usual midnight or 1 a.m. on Thursday night to have it ready to post on Friday. In the past I would have done just that but I’m trying to learn to that sometimes it’s okay to give myself a break on these self-imposed deadlines. I trust you’ll understand. I’ll share a couple of photos from the show at the end of this post so be sure to read all the way to the end.

Autumn From the Heart of the Home
And here are those pictures I promised from the Disney On Ice show. We were especially excited to see it because a friend is one of the skaters. She has skated with Disney On Ice for many years but this is the first time she’s performed in her home state of Oklahoma. She was thrilled to be able to have friends see the show and we had a blast.
I didn’t think you forgot. I thought you over-booked your day again, and ran out of time. Looks like I was right. 😉
Anyway, I’ve enjoyed these posts. I didn’t comment on them all, because I didn’t really have much to say beyond, “Great post, and fun ideas.” But you know I liked them enough to share them, since I managed to make it tag you in the Facebook posts (I shared them on Twitter too).
You’ve got me figured out. Ha! I really do appreciate the shares – that means a lot to me. And I saw that your awful neighbor moved! That’s great. 🙂
Yeah, we’re all relieved. She made quite the dramatic exit though. Still, she’s gone now, and we’ve all enjoyed a wonderful few days without her. 😉
Will this change your mind about moving?
