Last Saturday the Missouri Governor’s Mounted Guard were back at it and mounted on their trusty steads. Don’t ask me why it is so much fun to say “Trusty Steads.” I think it stems from Shrek when Princess Fiona calls Donkey Shrek’s Trusty Stead until she realizes that Shrek is an Ogre and then Donkey…
Friday night a friend of ours was going to sing the National Anthem at the Joplin Outlaws baseball game so we loaded up and headed over to support her and watch a baseball game. We got there a bit early while they were still warming up. There was a foul ball that came our direction….
Normally on the first day of the month I post that I’ve still been plugging away at my project 365. And just so we’re clear I have been! But today warranted a different post… like what I was up to yesterday! What was I up to yesterday you ask? Well writing a paper that was…
So sometimes it is fun to use my blog as a place to remember events. One so event that hasn’t been blogged about yet is my football jersey. A couple years ago hubby and I were able to attend our first KC Chiefs game together. Not long after that hubby and I got our own…

I want to say Santa’s Little Helpers but truthfully you have to have a big heart to be this generous at Christmas time so that definitely makes everyone Santa’s Big Helpers! There are a bunch of people still out of work even though the television says that unemployment rates are down. That means there are…
So we have two friends, (technically 3, we claim one as our group now!! Nancy went through classes with Grady) who are Red Coaters for the Kansas City Chiefs. At Sunday’s game the Red Coaters had a tailgating party that was catered in for Red Coaters and their families. Since we are claimed as family…
Oh where to start, where to start. Really in the fall my weekends get swamped with lots of fun activities and not so fun activities (such as school work….). This weekend though was a lot of fun activities… that’s the best part anyway! So Saturday was my dear sweet husbands birthday. Hi hunny, I love…
