RUN  IN  A  DRESS  OF  WHITE



OR

STAND  OUT  IN  A  PRINCESS  GOWN  OF  BLUE???"

AND  THEN  MAYBE,  JUST  MAYBE

ALICE  IN  WONDERLAND

THANK  YOU  MY  DEAR  BLOGGING  FRIENDS

FOR  JOINING  ME  FOR  SARES  COSTUME  PARTY.

IT  WAS  A  LOT  OF  FUN.

I  APPRECIATE  YOUR  FRIENDSHIP  AND 

LOYALTY.

RICHIE  AND  MEGAN'S  MOVE  WENT  VERY

WELL.  THE  FIRST  THING  HE  DID  WAS  PUT

DOWN  HIS  WELCOME DOOR  MAT  OF  THE

OKLAHOMA  STATE  COWBOYS...THEIR

APARTMENT  IS  4-5  BLOCKS  FROM  KANSAS

UNIVERSITY.  OOPS!  HE  IS  LOYAL  TO  HIS

TEAMS  NO  MATTER  WHAT.

IT  FEELS  SO  EMPTY  WITH  MY  ONLY  SON,

ONLY  CHILD,  AND  OUR  BEAUTIFUL  DIL  MEGAN,

4  1/2  HOURS  AWAY  FROM  US.  I  JUST  WAS

NOT  READY  FOR  THEIR  MOVE.

SANDIE,  THANK  YOU  FOR  SENDING  ME  POSTCARDS

FROM  YOUR  TRIP.  I  LOVED  EVERYONE

OF  THEM.  YOU  ARE  A  PRECIOUS  JEWEL.

LAST  YEAR  THE  BEAUTIFUL  K  DOTTIE

SENT  ME  A  POSTCARD  FROM  PARIS  AND

GREECE.  AMY  AND  I  LOVED  LOOKING  AT  IT,

AS  WE  DREAMED  OF  GOING  TO  PARIS  TOGETHER.

WELL  SHE  WANTED  TO  GO  TO  PARIS  SECOND

AND  IRELAND  FIRST.  I  WANTED  TO  GO  TO  PARIS

FIRST  AND  IRELAND  SECOND.


SEE  YOU  FOR  PINK  SATURDAY...

IF  NOT,  I  WISH  "ALL"  FATHER'S

A  HAPPY,  HAPPY  FATHER'S  DAY.  IT

WILL  BE  VERY  SAD  FOR  RICHARD.

Your post was a feast for the eyes, swirling with energy. Sares is very fortunate to have such a caring and delightful friend as you.

Wow. You REALLY know how to throw a party! You would have looked so elegant in any of your choices, but I am oh so glad the French gown will be mine! And the apartment in Hollywood with all the spectacular pink gifts, you are too too generous my friend!
Thank you so much for taking the time to party with me on my Birthday, it means so much to me and you did do the Linky correctly.
I am sorry to hear your son and his family moved. I can imagine it's going to be very hard to have them so far away but I hope it is a good move for them and brings them only good things.
Have a great day and thank you again for the splendid party!

Decisions, decisions! It is always so hard to decide! You made a wonderful choice though, and you look mah-velous dah-lling! Sares is a lucky girl to have such a generous friend as you. Oh, the music is starting....must make my way back to the dance floor. What fun this is! Enjoy the party!
