October 26, 2011 Last week I shared with you my plight, of having to make, yes make, a homecoming mum garter for Chloe's homecoming date. Chloe informed me of this too late to order a mum from a florist, Hobby Lobby or Micheal's. Like I explained last week, I am not what you would call 'crafty' in any way, so this was going to be torture!

October 18, 2011 Remember when you were a kid, how exciting it was to have a birthday? That day was so special and all about you. When I was a kid, birthdays were simpler. All your friends would come to your house on Saturday morning or afternoon. You would play 'pin the tail on the donkey,' hit the pinata and look forward to eating cake, which was homemade by your Mom, and ice cream. Oh, and of course the best part of your special day, opening the gifts.
October 17, 2011 It's Homecoming time in East Texas and that means football games, dances and mums.
If you haven't ordered your Homecoming mums by now, it's too late -- you must make your own. Yikes, I have no clue how to make a mum, so I'm in a bit of a predicament. After begging my friends and even some strangers, to help me out, I find myself facing one of my biggest fears, crafts! I am the least "craftiest" person on the planet -- are you kidding me.

Brantley Gilbert is heading to Tyler on November 12 to headline the 2011 Taste of Country Christmas Tour, but don't assume that the Georgia-born singer will carry on the holiday tradition a la Vince Gill and Amy Grant or John Berry. Gilbert is on the brink of stardom because his shows are as lively and rambunctious as anyone who headlines major arenas and amphitheaters right now. He's focused, emotional and honest. As a result, his fans are as loyal as a biscuit is to gravy.
September 22, 2011 According to the Guinness Book Of World Records, 'Happy Birthday To You'' is the most recognized song in the English language, followed by 'He's a Jolly Good Fellow.' The origins of the song date back to the Mid-nineteenth century. The melody comes from the song, 'Good Morning All,' written by American siblings Patty Hill and Mildred Hill. Patty was a kindergarten teacher and her sister Mildred was a pianist and composer. Interesting facts, but we want the cash!
