Honoring Volunteers



Today was a great day. We had the Lone Star Salute honoring volunteers serving non-profit agencies and organizations in Collin County. There were about 400 people present for the event honoring about 50 volunteers and volunteer groups. It was such a heart-warming experience to see all the lovely people who have been contributing their time and resources for the benefit of the dozens of organizations in our communities.

The tables were so pretty with red roses, white daisies and blue vases, with red napkins as accessories. Again, it was a really nice event and a great highlight to my week!

Fun times!!


I had such a fun night last night... I had invited the Keno girls over for a fun evening to see the house and to catch up with each other. It had been too long since we had gotten together. Well, was I ever surprised!! Everyone brought presents, but instead of being for the game, they were housewarming presents. I've got the sweetest friends in the WORLD!!

Random shift in train of thought... I am also tracking the progress on Highway 121, which I can see from my window. Yesterday and today, there are huge cranes out there looking like they are going to start piecing the big sections together that go over US 75. Should be exciting to see it come together!!

Easter Blessings...

My prayer for today... Lord, I am humbled by the opportunities and privileges I have and I thank you. I pray for your love, peace, joy, kindness, patience, and blessings for everyone, especially those who are hurting in some way today. May your hand touch our hearts and encourage us... knowing that you sent your Son, Jesus Christ, to die so that we could live in eternity with you in heaven... And that He LIVES!! What an incredible sacrifice and an amazing tribute to your love for all if us. Thank you, Father. In your Son's name I pray.
