Hitting the Road for Chicago....

In the morning, I will leave out for a long drive to Chicago. I will be attending the Country Living Women Entrepreneurs' Event. I am so excited that I finally get an opportunity to attend. I think this will be an amazing time for me to learn new things from other creative women from all over the United States. I know I am going to be nervous but I hope the nerves slip away rather quickly.

Rosanna Bowles is the speaker this year and I couldn't be more thrilled. She is the founder of Rosanna Inc., an award-winning company, producing beautiful and unique dishes and glassware. Some of my favorite patterns are below.



My Mom is going with me so since we are driving we are going to go to some places that we have been wanting to go. Curious Sofa in Prairie Village, Kansas, www.curioussofa.com. Then on down to The Clover Leaf Boutique in Ardmore, Oklahoma, www.thecloverleafboutique. Surely we can find some other shopping treasures along the way...

When I return, I will return emails and phone calls. Also, regular production on invitations, stationary, and photography orders will resume. Thanks for your encouragement!

Remembering Those Who Served and Those Who Are Serving Our Country


I was in my hometown yesterday for a photo session and as I drove past the courthouse something grabbed my attention. There were crosses with flags draped over them remembering the ones we have lost in combat from Scurry County. I have never seen Snyder do this and it was really moving. I thought after my session I would go back and see if there were names on the crosses. There is one in particular that I was looking for, my Great Aunt LaVerne Farquhar. She is my Papa's older sister. Please read below:

"On February 10th, 1944, Second Lieutenant LaVerne Farquhar of the 2nd Auxiliary Surgical Group working in the 33rd Field Hospital in Anzio was killed when artillery shells hit..."

You can read more about LaVerne and all the great nurses that served our country in WW II in the book: And If I Perish : Frontline U. S. Army Nurses in World War II, by Evelyn M. Monahan and Rosemary L. Neidel
