Once again, it took July for us to recover from June.
AUGUST

And, our friends did a really fun “bachelor” party for us.

Time to use the beautiful things I bought at market in January.
And time to be thankful…in Oklahoma. One of the best Thanksgivings, ever. Thankful, indeed!!!
DECEMBER

…and more…
…and finally Christmas on the farm!!!
It was a 19 month project but oh, so worth it!!! So HAPPY!!!
Our South Main “family” gathered to celebrate the season with my client and our dear friend’s new home.
Family isn’t whose blood you carry. It’s who you love and who loves you expecting nothing in return.
And, finally our second year celebrating Christmas on the beach.
Then back home looking forward to another wonderful year filled with luck and prosperity in the pursuit of love, life and the pursuit of happiness!!!
Here’s hoping 2016 finds your house lovely and a good time being had by all.
What a fabulous year, my sweet friend! Thanks for making me a part of your most special memory.
