A Man for all Seasons
Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall – all you have to do is call, and he’ll come running. Please let me introduce you to that beautiful man on his birthday. Larry Wallace, my daughter’s husband; Payton and Alexia’s dad and I call him my son! We share him with the many who he “fathers”, “friends”, and…
Win All Day
Pictures speak louder than words, but since I, being a widow with excess words to deliver, will provide this blog with words AND pictures.

There’s something about the pride one has for their college or…
