As mentioned in a previous post, the Bride to Be – The Lovely Stephanie – likes Art Deco. That was the beginning of our thinking. Also her beloved groom – Ken – is of Chinese decent, and they are incorporating some of those elements into their wedding. So naturally, we wanted to honor that also. […]
Weddings are such special times, and the major excitement around here this fall has been Stephanie’s wedding. Sweet Mother of Pearl! All of the ladies of the Living Stones Bible Fellowship have been excited. (Understatement!) As one of the ladies mentioned, “This is the wedding of the century.” As far as we are concerned, […]
Please indulge me. I fully realize that 99.9% – Okay, probably 100% – of my readers have absolutely no interest in this blog – DIY Bow Ties. But…. I DIY something, and I want to blog about it. It is no great thing, but there is a feeling of accomplishment that is filling my inner […]

The Mrs. introduced us to Dallas Life – the largest homeless shelter in North Texas. It is a place where miracles happen. Homelessness can happen to anyone. People who have good jobs and a nice home in the suburbs can find themselves homeless. Yes! In this case, first the woman in the family lost her […]
I have to be honest. This year at the beginning of the school year, there was a tug in my heart, and for a short while I missed teaching. But then – Each morning I would look at the clock – 7:30 a.m. and I am still in my bed. 8:00 a.m. and I am […]
