Chickasaw Hall of Fame Award

I have been so behind on posting!! So forgive me, but two main events that have happened in our family are too good to not show pictures of. First, this is my sweet 93 year old Grandfather, Papa. He was recently inducted into the Chickasaw Hall of Fame.They only selected 3 people this year to receive the award.This was a HUGE honor. My whole family(even 2 of my cousins flew in from Virginia and Pennsylvania) attended the dinner at the Riverwind Casino in Norman. It was such a special time. He was given the award because of his love for teaching music to children. He is a violin teacher and still gives lessons to small kids in his home. He is a wonderful, sweet, funny, man and we were all so honored that he was the recipient this year. He is one of a KIND!!
We love you Papa!!!

Halloween 2008

We had a great time in Norman for Halloween this year. I was lucky enough to see my Papa, Nana, Grandpa, Great Grandpa, Great Aunt MaryAnne and Uncle Jake. I was also lucky to get to play with my friends Addison, Hadley, Emma, Mason and the Remy Gang. We had a blast and I had fun showing off my golf swing. I wanted to be a golfer this year because I love going and playing golf with my dad. He straps me in to the golf cart in my high chair and I go out and watch him play 18 holes. He will talk to me, feed me, and tell me what he is doing so that one day I will be a good golfer like him. This Halloween was fun although, I'm not big enough to "trick or treat" yet.
