Snow Day and Me

Just as we feared that winter would pass without a single snowfall, we got snow twice in one week! On Tuesday, it snowed in the morning and was gone before the school day ended. The next day it was 65 degrees! Thursday morning brought anticipation of more winter weather on Friday; schools began announcing closures as early as 3:00 pm the day prior to the expected snow. When we woke this morning? Nada! Zip! Zilch! By afternoon, though, everything was white–enough snow for a great snowball fight and a snowman bigger than Phoenix! I love snow!

I should have told you this earlier, but there’s no time like the present: If you click on any of the photos in this blog, you will be taken to my Flickr photostream where you can look at all of the photos I’ve uploaded. There are currently about 550 there, and there are many more to come… I love photography!

My Valentine and Me

Phoenix asked me to go to the Mother-Son/ Father-Daughter Valentine’s Day Dance at his school. Then he asked me to buy a dress! We danced a little. Dinner was catered, but they ran out of food by the time we got to it, so they brought in Little Caesar’s pizza. On the way home, Phoenix said he didn’t have quite enough fun, so we stopped at Chuck E. Cheese for a couple of games! What a blast!!! We had a great time, and boy did he look handsome! I love my Valentine!

Halloween and Me

We hosted a Halloween party at Professor Bowl in Little Rock. Almost every kid from Phoenix’s class attended–plus Owen and Johnathan. Chuck, David, and Jennifer helped us keep the kids in lane, I mean line. I love Halloween!

A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity: flying on the Tin Goose, a 1929 Ford Tri-motor plane! I want to earn my private pilot’s license some day. I love airplanes!

Counter clockwise from the front left, we are Kaitlyn, Phoenix, Dharma, David, Gina, Gwen, and Jeremy. This was taken uptown on July 4, 2007 during Oxford’s Independence Day Celebration. I love uptown!

My Cousins and Me

Some of us, anyway; there are 10 of us. From left to right, we are Gene, Paul, Gwen, and Julia. Joann was there, too, and we should have taken a photo while she was! I think this was the first time one grandkid from each of my grandparent’s kids were all in the same place at the same time since 1993. This photo was taken in front of the house that Grandpa built. I love Grandma’s house!

A great day of hiking at Mount Magazine started with checking out the view from the hang glider launch point. What a view! I love great views!

The sunset from atop Mount Magazine was beautiful. Phoenix, Jeremy, Owen, Tundra, and I enjoyed it before heading back to camp. I love sunsets!
