My Secret Garden

Ashley works at this posh flower shop in Columbia. They just finished a wedding for the Kroenke family (they own the Rams and part of Walmart) and Ashley brought me some of the leftover roses.

Fall Breakfast

It was time for me to renew my spirit with some time with my girlfriends! I decided to treat my friends to a breakfast featuring fall type food. We had egg blossoms, baked oatmeal with cranberries and pecans, maple walnut scones, and strawberries. Of course, we had mimosas to drink! Ashley, Charlotte, Joey and Tambra were able to come! We had a great time!

I loved all the potato dishes and salads. We should print a family cookbook! In one photo you will see Irene (the …

Mizzou Football!

Bob and I love Missour Football! We are big fans and love to tailgate with our buddies. We tailgate every game if possible! We started tailgating in 1980 when we first moved to Columbia. We have seen coaches come and go but the fans are constant!

The Tigers won their season opener 40-7 yesterday with a record breaking 5 touchdown passes! The band looked great!
