An evening with royalty

Posted by Lanel on November 30, 2007

I had the pleasure of spending last evening with a true princess. I couldn’t have asked for more fun. We began the evening dining at the Golden Arches then went to a divine show in Spokane for aspiring princes and princesses. Of course, I had the honor of being accompanied by a [...]

 First Snow

Posted by Lanel on November 27, 2007

It came last night.  I love the snow.  I love winter.  But, I just wasn’t ready for it last night.  I’m loving looking out my office window and seeing the beauty that is outside but my car wasn’t ready.  I wasn’t quite ready yet.  But, it’s here so it’s OK.
