Shopping for the Thanksgiving Dinner

Thanksgiving would be at our house and we would have 20.  Mel and I went to Crest to purchase the needed groceries.  We made it a fun day by shopping then enjoying chicken-fried steak at Tiffany's.




Our First Taste of Winter

Early in November we had our first taste of winter.  We received about an inch of snow on the farm.  A record of 2.5 " was set in OKC. Could this be an indication of our coming winter?




An added note:  November, 2014 was the coldest on record since the 1800's!!

A Fun Week-end in Tulsa

Mel and I were delegates to the Farm Bureau Convention that was held in Tulsa.  We stayed at the Renaissance Hotel.  The location was great and it was easy to shop at the stores close-by.

Soup and sandwich were tasty since it was a cold blustery day!

Dinner at Chuy's


A fun time away from the farm!
