Happy Birthday Stacey!



Today our youngest niece (on my side) turns 9 years old. All blessings to you Stacey, and we hope you have a great birthday!

In other news, it is also the 14th anniversary of my cousin's horrific car crash (he's ok now, but still walks with a limp)

- and -

The 174th anniversary of the Fall of the Alamo. May we never forget their sacrifice.
