We Believe!
We Believe! We love our OKC Thunder basketball team and they had a great season this year, but the Golden State Warriors are having an even better season. The Thunder fell one game short of making it to the NBA Finals because of the Warriors, but there’s always next year for a rebound! We Believe!…
Remembering to Remember
Yesterday was Memorial Day and I couldn’t help but notice all the photos of tombstones on FB that represent fallen soldiers. I also saw many FB posts and photos that were honoring loved ones who served in the armed services, as well as to those loved ones who were so dearly loved and remembered on…
What Memorial Day Means to Me
Even though we know that Memorial Day was originally created to help us remember the sacrifices of brave heroes who fought for our freedoms, it has become an event built around a 3-day holiday that kicks off the summer season. Today, millions of people will head outdoors to dust off their patio furniture, fire up…
What Color Is Your Angel?
Staci and I were getting out of the car at the store, when Staci ran over to a nearby parked car. One of the ladies was getting out all the tools needed to change a flat tire, while the other lady was looking at a YouTube video telling how to do it. (LOL! Thank God…
And the Celebrations Continue…..
Blame it on my husband and I…..way back in the beginning, we made the celebration of our birthdays bigger than any other day of the year. After all, that’s the day God made us so we rejoice and are so glad for it….not just for a day, but oftentimes, for the week and in more…

SURPRISE!!! Happy Birthday, Payton! Yesterday was my #3 grandson’s (in order of birth-dates) 16th birthday. That morning, I sent him a text that said, “I wish I were there to celebrate your birthday today, but we’ll make up for it while we’re fishing next week!” So, it was a big surprise when he came home…

We Need ANCHOR Stores AND We Need an ANCHOR.
I had to get a new tire yesterday because the old one was “injured”, per the sales guy at the tire store. Seems a nail was in an unrepairable spot. (One of the hazards of living in a new community where lots of construction is going on.) So as I sat in the waiting room,…
God’s Faithfulness is New Every Morning
I often take a meal to Mom’s for us to share and “catch up” on what’s going on in our little corner of the world. Last week, we had our usual conversation, drew cards from her Bread of Life Promise Box which contains various scriptures, which by the way, she has all memorized. I started…
