It’s always good to start a Saturday at men’s breakfast at First Christian Church. Good food and lots of it and I usually get a chance to catch up with Adrian. This Saturday we had the pleasure of seeing Charles Mason too, always lucky to see these two.

For the first time in two years we got a chance to take the train into Dallas and catch a Stars game!!! But we lost in pretty spectacular fashion 4 to 1. Oh well, they keep this up and seats will be a lot cheaper than $50 apiece:)

I deeply appreciate the sacrifices that were given by those who fought for our freedoms. I regret that I was not able to be of service to my country in whatever capacity they would have needed me. I tried but the cyst on my wrist caused them to take a pass on me. Kind of…

I think we all think we have the best mom, why wouldn’t we, deep down I think each of us individually has the best mom because let’s face it, no one will love us more than our moms. The true definition of unconditional love. My one true hope is that I’ve made up for all…

We slept in and then started the cooking, we had ribs, baked beans, something that was supposed to be au gratin potatoes but came out like cheesy mashed potatoes. But a good time was had by all.

It’s Christmas eve and we just got back from my sisters where we had filet magnon with baked mashed potatoes and broccoli and carrots. Mom, Sandy, Cortney, Garth, Jason and I had a wonderful time.
