Childhood Friends! Filed under ( Friends )

We spent today some great friends from our Sunday School class that we have known almost the whole time we have been in Omaha. Here is a picture from 2000 and one from today - love this! We are so thankful for our friends and these traditions!

My Baylor Girls! Filed under ( Friends )

We have been getting together with my Baylor girlfriends since we all graduated from Baylor in 1985. Sometimes we have just girl trips and about 10 or so of us usually attend. 5 families of which none of the husbands went to Baylor-have been getting together at various places in TEXAS for the past 15 years. This year the 5 families gathered near Marble Falls, TX at the coolest house(s) ever. We just love it. This was our 2nd time to stay at MORIAH. This place is a Martha Stewart goes pioneer... so fun and decorated just amazing. Please google Moriah - Marble Falls to see this amazing place. Three other families joined us this year - we are so blessed to have the chance to spend time together.

This is one of Annie's very favorite friends - mine too. I will get in trouble for saying that because Annie has many favorite friends -OK- Kiley - you are a favorite friend too. Taylor plays club volleyball with Annie and goes to a different school - they are best buds!

Baylor Homecoming-25th Reunion Filed under ( Friends, Susan )

Went to my Baylor 25th Reunion this past weekend - so fun. I got to see many friends from the past-from Baylor, from my hometown of Marshall, TX, my big sister in my sorority and even my grand-big sister were there. AND... spending time with MY BAYLOR GIRLS was the best part of it all - always love it when we can get together. We went to Pigskin, the Homecoming parade, the KKG brunch and then off to tailgating at the football game. Shortly after, a monsoon hit just when the football game started - many made it in the game and stayed dry under the stadium until play started but several friends stuck out under a "tent" and we were drenched. It was crazy!

Many of our age group have children at Baylor-especially nice meeting this generation of bears. I just loved being there - I am so thankful for my years at BAYLOR and the lifelong friends I made! I hope my girls have the same wonderful experience wherever they chose to go when their college days arrive!

Vala's Pumpkin Patch Filed under ( Friends, Preschool )

I am a TEXAS girl and I mention often about growing up in East Texas. I love TEXAS but I never experienced a pumpkin patch. Typically, a pumpkin patch in Texas is in a church parking lot. Well, one thing I love about Omaha is FALL. We usually have an amazing FALL. Today, I went with my preschool class and their families to Vala's Pumpkin Patch here in Omaha. What a FALL treat! The weather was amazing and of course, I especially love all of the food - kettle korn, chili bowl, turkey legs, funnel cakes, sweet potato fries, warm chocolate chip cookies, caramel apples and that just to name a few. I only had kettle korn today and okay.... a few warm chocolate chip cookies.. bite size of course. I loved sharing my kettle korn with my sweet little friends today.
