Saturday Smiles 10/17/26

 Hey Friends,

Thanks for all the birthday wishes. Every call, text, email, message, card, gift and hug is truly appreciated. I am so thankful! I know that I am very loved.

I thank God for blessing me with 41 years of life. He has allowed me to have a terrific life!

Here are some pictures from birthday-related things this week. These moments made me smile. 

We spent some time in the Branson area this week. I enjoyed special time with my Mama. We shopped, ate and relaxed. 

Thursday evening, we found our way to one of our favorite Tulsa area Mexican restaurants. Los Cabos was so good. The fellowship with Joy, Terry and Joy Cummins was excellent!

Terry is a brat, he made sure the celebration continued. Thanks for making certain I felt special. 

See you all later.

Happy 41st Birthday, Odie!!!

Hello everyone 😄!

 KJo coming to you for a few lines. 

We are celebrating Odie’s birthday again. It seems like they keep coming around as fast as mine🤣. 

I love you, Odie, to the moon and back!

You are the greatest kid in the world. 

You display a beautiful face, beautiful spirit, beautiful attitude, beautiful girl, you are!

It is my privilege to spend the day with you celebrating!

Everyone feel free in the comments to bombard Oldie…. (Oops, I mean Odie) with birthday greetings!😁

We had lunch with some family on Monday to celebrate Odie’s birthday. Here are some pics.

Happy Anniversary to my parents, as well! We love you!! Happy 59th!

56th Annual Saurkraut Festival Pics

 Hey Friends,

Our Hometown is Waynesville, Ohio. The second weekend in October is the biggest weekend of the year. It is the annual Saurkraut Festival. 

The town has around 2,600 residents, as of 2020. Normally, around 300,000 people are in Waynesville for the 2-day festival. The event includes all things Saurkraut and handmade crafts!

We had not been home for any of the festival in 7 years. I was due for my Saurkraut Festival fix. This year, we actually caught a couple of hours on both days. We really enjoyed being there. 

Mom and I snapped some pictures to share with you. Lauren Osborn shared the funnel cake pic because I forgot to take one. Dodds church sells the funnel cakes. They were so yummy this year. 

On Saturday, it was curb-to-curb people. I could not really shop the crafts. I found a parking spot out of the way. I put away some good food Mom brought me. We headed home early to avoid rain. 

Sunday, the crowds were lighter due to weather. We just went to grab lunch then headed home for a nap.

See you next time. 

Odie
