I found a travel Scrabble at the Walmart in Clarksdale, Mississippi! Already broke it in...poor Mark!

So now you can drive somewhere and play scrabble at the same time.

We are in Mississippi as we speak! We wanted to get away for a few days. The scenery is beautiful. I forgot what rolling hills looked like! We are going out for sushi tonight! Yummy! Where in our city could you get fresh sushi?

Let the record reflect that on Sunday, July 16th, I kicked Angela's haughty little butt at Scrabble: 273 to 228!

Just keepin' it real! (Love you, honey!)

I canNOT believe that you got on your blog during your anniversary "vaca"!!! good LORD!!!
Oh, and I thought that I'd let you know that there are really big hills (Ozark Mtns.) in NW Arkansas. If rolling hills did it for you, then they'll prolly make you faint up there. :-)~

LOVE Travel Scrabble. Taylor and I got it for one of our wedding gifts last year...it's one of my favorite gifts! We play all the time when we're flying places. It's great for planes. ;) We should get together and play sometime. (I'm not that good...I don't think I've ever scored over 200..but it's still fun!)

It all began in 1986! My parents volunteered to host a Japanese exchange student, through our local church! Norie flew to Washington State for a 3 week introduction to the our country. We hit it off the minute I met her. She came, with my parents, to pick me up from summer camp. Her little Japanese/English dictionary was the only way we could communicate. I guess in the end it didn't matter! She fell in love with the States, and I fell in love with Japan. I think that is what my parents had in mind, for us to understand a bit of culture that existed outside of our own. She quickly became my best friend. Through the years, she has visited twice (one of those times was when I was married in 1994), I have visited her in Japan in 1992, and then in New York in 2004. Norie loved the States so much that she ended up attending college here and currently resides in New York City! She has taught me so much respect for the Japanese culture. My desire to live there, has remained constant sin...

Monday, when we got back from our anniversary trip, found a note on the counter that read: Suzanne called. Play group. Tuesday at 830am. Who would schedule a playgroup so early? Doesn't anyone sleep in? Let the kids find their own breakfast, and stay under the covers till they beg for lunch? Well, you know heat here in the summers, ranging around the 100's, makes us southerners wake up early in the a.m. to do the things we enjoy. When noon rolls around, we hull up in our homes, doors tightly shut, curtains drawn, trying to escape the BIG BAD (the sun appropriately named, right Spike?)! I guess that was not in the cards for us today! We spent the early morning hours playing at the park with pretty much everyone from Journey! Unfortunately around 10 a.m. the heat found us and forced us to retreat to Suzanne's house for some relief! We had a great time chatting, the conversation ranged from ovulation...and ended with ovulation. I think Micheal enjoyed the conversation as much ...

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was graciously celebrated early because I have to work tomorrow. My MIL was wonderful to offer the change indate so that we could all be together.  It felt good to spend time with our family. Our year has been filled with a ton of loss and sorrow so it's hard to take time and be thankful. But we are Thankful! We are thankful for each and every day we spend with our families. We fought hard for years just to get back to our families and although they drive us mad sometimes they are the only reason to struggle through this life. I love and am Thankful for my family and Mark's family. I have learned to love them for who they are. My millennial kids have taught me that over time. Their hearts are open to everyone, and to change!  I love that about them. As we, or actually I because I think my husband is coming back over for more Thanksgiving tomorrow, close the book on today I can't help but feel an incredible sadness today. Our first Thanksgiving without Mike. I p...
