I Been Tagged - Woah!

Tagged by Nena - Sorry it took so long, Crazy busy right now, but in this tiny window here goes,

Seven things about Peg - by the owner:

I love any color as long as it’s red. All shades of red are acceptable except the one with a lot of orange in it. Clear red=best.

I love to sew, quilt, just mess with fabric things. It makes me happy to create with fabric. Oh Well.

I love to decode recipes. I think it’s fun to “get it right” if I can. If not then oh well. It was fun trying. I might have a success or two(Like: Joe's’ Real Barbecue Beans - Ask Chet). Actually I just love to make stuff up. It’s like, you know, fun.

I love music, no, I love Christmas Music(99.9 f.m. all season baby!), no wait, I love Show Tunes(Always look on the bright side”. Spamalot), no wait, I love James Taylor(right this minute listening to “That’s Why I’m Here, Greatest Hits Vol 2.), no wait, I love so many kinds of music, can I pin down one favorite? Not tonight. Well wait, musical theater. That’s right, I love it. I get a lump in my throat during the overture of any musical, but “You’re a Good Man Charlie Brown”? Stop it! I ‘m a moosh. But one of my favs is the overture to The King and I. I can see that show all laid out ready to perform. Fabulous.

I love flowers, all types all colors, all fragrances, But favs are Red Roses, Pink roses and pink or red Geraniums. Ahh bliss!

I love my cute family. I have one of the nicest human beings as my husband. Besides other wonderful traits, he rubs my feet with lotion every time I ask. He doesn’t complain or whine and often he offers. I know you are all envious. I have very nice children. Each and every one has remarkable talents and intellect and energy and faith and when we are all together, it’s the height of joy for me. Imagine six siblings making each other laugh, making up games, singing together, remembering crazy things from the growing up years, and the love and support of each one by the others. It’s pretty cool, who wouldn’t love that?

I love the Lord. I am so grateful to know that I am loved by a Heavenly Father and a Savior. I need saving. I’m humbled to know that I am worth His sacrifice for me. I love the songs and stories about His Birth and his life. I love His teachings, I just wish I could do everything right.
So Nena, I hope it’s what I’m supposed to do. Thanks for the nudge girl. Heart, Peg

The Big 33!

Lots of people (say in Hollywood)think that being married for ten years is a great feat,...but a third of a Century???? Wow! Now we are talkin' legendary almost. Well today is the big day of anniversary for Peg and Parker. The big 33! Years married that is. Well in honor of the occasion, we took our annual trek to So. Cali. for sun and R & R.

Actually we didn't stay long enough for R& R. Maybe just R. But we did see family and friends that we love and sadly a burned out landscape. Still, we think we will go for another 33. We'll be old but will still have things to talk about, laugh about, pray about and be happy about. We still like each other, that's good. We still find new favs, like diet orange soda and diet cream soda mixed. Wow. That's good, and then there's always Chuck and Pushing Daisies our new T.V. friends that we love to share, not to mention Iron Chef. All in all life is pretty good. Thanks Parker for a great 33 years. It's great to know that you've still got it! Heart, Peg

Trick or Treat!



The Trick was keeping it a secret. The Treat was having the sistahs together
and the brothah here for five whole minutes in honor of the occasion!
What occasion? "You're A Good Man Charlie Brown!" Duh - Our family has been joined at the hip with Mesa High School for a couple of months... but the outcome was great. We are grateful for the modern age of flight and cell phones that provided a great surprise for Madison and her opening night and also the special visitng dignitary from Las Vegas. Happy Halloween
