Happy Anniversity to US!

39 years ago today, December 23, 1968, Kendall and I were married. We were married in his home church, Ripley Church of God buy Rev. W.O. Wilkerson. I wore a pretty pink dress and Kendall had on his nice black suit. Of course none of the pictures above are of our wedding, there were only 1 3/4's pictures of the wedding, lol. My best friend growing up, Judy, was my maid of honor and her boy friend, Bob, was Kendall's best man. There wasn't too many there - my parents, my aunt and uncle, grandmother and grandfather, Kendall's mom and dad, and a few people from church, it was as nice wedding. I love having our wedding anniversary at Christmas, it is so festive with the lights, Christmas trees, people are happy and the best movies come out at Christmas! Today we are going to meet our niece, Bridgette, and our daughter and her husband, Jennifer and Richard, at New China for lunch, then Kendall and I will do a little shopping and then we'll go to a movie. So, happy anniversary Kendall, thank you for marring me and putting up with me for all these years, I love you with all my heart!

MERRY CHIRSTMAS FROM UAT!

I WANT TO WISH EACH AND EVERYONE

A MOST WONDERFUL

MERRY CHIRSTMAS!

The Ice Storm - Winter 2007

They (the weathermen and newsmen) say it is the worse ice storm in recorded history of Oklahoma. We were very lucky that we still had electricity and heat, 1,000's of people were without in Oklahoma.

When I went out to the car Monday morning and it was encased in ice. I pounded and pounded but couldn't get the door open so back I went in the house to get Kendall out of his warm bed. Bless his heart, these are the pictures of him cleaning the car off for me. He is such a good husband.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

To Mom!!!

My husband's mom went on to be with the Lord this spring and because she wouldn't be with us for Christmas my brother-in-law want to do something in her memory. None of us knew what on earth he was up to. He said he wanted us all (his sister, brother and me, his older son and wife, along with his wife, my sister-in-law) to meet at a restaurant and have dinner together. After dinner he brought out a box of chocolate covered cherrys. We all busted out laughing.

You see, when my mother-in-law died, we found candy stashed everywhere, 2 boxes were the chocolate covered cherrys, one was opened and the wasn't. We were amazed at all the candy she had stuffed under the bed, in the closet, in the drawer of her night stand, in the kitchen (in different places). Bless her heart, we just figured she forgot where they were and she'd buy more or one of us would get her more, lol.

This is a picture of all of us, chocolate covered cherry in hand, toasting Mom.

So, here's to you Mom! I couldn't have asked for a better mother-in-law...no, strike that...I couldn't have asked for a better 2nd Mom, because she was. We all love her and miss her. But we'll see her one day and it will be like we had never been apart!

MERRY CHRISTMAS MOM!

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!
