Okay, so it's been a long time since I've updated! I also just realized I begin most posts with the word, "Okay"... hmm... Well (another word I begin with frequently...), it's been a great summer. Short, but fun. For those who don't know I resigned my beloved teaching position to stay home with Grace. Although I'm not completely unemployed. I am still on staff as Children's minister at our church. Really loving life right now. It's harder work than I thought to stay home, but it's very rewarding. :o) So I went to Bonanza Convention. Yes, Bonanza the tv show. Yes, they have conventions. And yes, everyone was surprisingly normal (most everyone...). Okay, now I'll give you a moment to quit laughing.... Better? ANyway, convention was a LOT of fun. Had a great time meeting people I've known for several years online. Including: Jeannie C (who you have to thank for this post!), Holliday, Cowboy Jim, Adamsdarling, Milesky, Meadow, Julee, Kemarlow, and many others. If you're wondering, yes it was hard to find each other especially since we really only knew each other's screennames! We had a great time meeting each other and touring the Ponderosa Ranch House attraction! Good times. Grace is doing fantastic. Her ear tube surgery went great and she hasn't had an ear infection since! In fact the day after her surgery she learned about 10 new words because she could finally hear! Now she's chattering away - all the time! Dinner THeater season is upon us again. This year is White Christmas. I will be joining the cast as Judy Haynes, the younger sister. Practicing hard. In other news, Salt 'n Light started back up. We now have fine arts classes for children birth through 6th grade! We had about 44 kids on Sunday! WOW! Well, that's about all I have to say. Ya'll have a great week and thank Jeannie for getting on my case about not posting! LOL (in fact that was one of the very first things she said to me when I met her!)

Well, it's good to be famous for something, I guess.

Nice to finally meet you in Tahoe! Love to you and Miss Hossette.

I'm so glad I got to meet you!

It was really great to meet you! Thanks to you, I googled Walmart Bingo and have shared that with everyone on my email address list, LOL.
