  • Bougainvillea at Wild Seed Farm outside Fredericksberg, TX


    Two more parties and two more concerts and then . . . LET CHRISTMAS COME !!!  Like it would actually not come if I didn’t say, “Let Christmas come”.  I only have one more gift to purchase and that will be easy.  I have a neighborhood party next Friday evening and then our own annual party next Saturday evening.  Would you believe I have 50 people coming next Saturday and other than Brisket, I haven’t a clue what the menu will be yet.  I REALLY have to work on that and soon.  The party next Friday night is not a problem, because it’s a carry in . . . sort of pot luck.  We don’t know if we’ll have all desserts or all chips and dips or anywhere in between.  We also don’t have any idea how many people will show up.  Our entire sub-division is invited, but the lady who sets these up says that there are usually no more than 30 to 35 people.  I hope she’s right. 


    Then we have a concert this Sunday evening and then one again on next Sunday evening.  All in all, I think I’m ahead of where I was last year at this time though, so not to worry.


    I just may be a little laxed about blogging in the next week or so.

  • We are going to a concert tonight with the Faerbers and dinner at their house. That’s about it for my Christmas socializing unless you count our family celebration Christmas day. I couldn’t begin to keep up with your (Mike’s) social calendar — and I am not trying to make a living too!  Makes my head spin  :spinning:

  • Hi. This is my first time here courtesy of your sister. You guys are so lucky to live near one another and you get to spend time doing fun stuff together. I live in Ohio, my siblings live in New Orleans, Knoxville, Seattle, and Paso Robles, California.

    Nice to meet you!

  • I’ve never known such busy women as you and Alice, I thought I managed to get through a lot, but it’s nothing compared to you. I feel tired just reading you. Wonderful to have such boost. Wonderful pictures too. I read your site regularly.
