Shanon, Mary and Spencer

Yesterday we spent the day with Mary in Duncan.  She's doing so well.  She's been in a SNF for the last month.  She's in good health and her spirits are improving.  I have more to say about the challenges of again, but I'm out of time right now. 

After a full day with Mary (and Shanon--my favorite cousin), we went to dinner with Shanon in Chickasha.  We had a terrific time catching up.  I only wish Bort and Rhonda had joined us.

Finally, we ended with Spencer and Tyler in Binger.  We hung out until about 1am, then Mark and Spencer made a Wal-Mart run to El Reno while I came home and went to bed.  Much fun...

We're here...

Mark and I arrived in OKC today. We met up with UL for dinner at one of Dad's favorite places..."Casa Juanita's". It was a fine feast of Mexican cousine! We had a wonderful visit with UL and talked about the Air Force, the Tuba, the Criminal (not the thief) on the cross, preaching, family, and how to memorize the minor prophets. It was a wonderful evening.

After dinner, Mark and I picked up a Cherry Limeade and drove to OC to see the campus improvements. It looked nice, but the highlight was seeing Brent & Bort's names on the "Fat Cat Donor" plaque in the student center. At least one of us has finally amounted to something.

I'm off...

Last week were final exams in Malibu so I have a light week of teaching this week, but a heavy week of grading. To celebrate I'm going to OKC with my brother to visit all of our grandparents. I'm really looking forward to seeing Mark and catching up. It's been nearly 20 years since we had time together like this. Amazing.

On the other hand, I'm not looking forward to seeing my Grandmother who was recently put into a nursing home. She is so unhappy there. I'm afraid she's goign to ask Mark and I to do a "Little Miss Sunshine" and break her out of there! I'll post photos here next week...

You heard it here first...

As I "officially" announced at the PU Faculty Conference yesterday, "Contrary to the rumors you may have heard, the business school fully supports the mission of the university."

You know you live in LA when...

You get an announcement like this from your 7-year old's soccer coach...

 

 

Today, September 30th, Action Shooters will be taking action photographs during your games.  They will wear shirts that identify them as "Action Shooters"....They are not to be confused with paparazzi....They will sell the action photos on Oct 7th at the Bluffs, Webster and MHS.  Any coaches that have families that are paparazzi sensitive please be on notice.  

Thanks, MS
