Couldn't decide on a post title, so I went with Chet Lee's favorite song. lol ;-)
This group pic from yesterday's party makes me happy! Left to right, it's Dad, Melissa, Karli, Tate, Chet, Parker, Jace, Kyndal, Rachael, Ellie, Jeffrey, me, Mom, and Triston!
Parker didn't take long to cozy up to Kyndal and Rach! =)
The brunch party menu included Gourmet Donuts (my fav donut shop in Norman), Candace's Cookie Creations (a CHA mom who has a side bakery business), pigs in a blanket, and CFA chicken minis and fruit! =) There was also H-Tea-O + apple cider, chocolate milk, and orange juice available!
Closer pic of the cute cookies. ❤
Parrishes by the tree (T came late and left early, so he wasn't a part of this pic, but something tells me he's okay with that)!
Rach was kind enough to take this group pic of our table! ❤
T-man and I - he's been busy applying to 20 colleges, and I'm proud of his hard work there! (He's been accepted to OSU, OU, and a few schools in Colorado, and he is working on scholarship applications now).
Our attempt to get a fun outdoor pic (under the carport) by the nutcrackers Rach painted for Mom... you can only see one eye and the hat of each of them, which is hilarious to me! As is the angle of this pic (from a phone camera with a timer resting precariously on Dad's car door handle). lol
Better pic of one of the aforementioned Nutcrackers...
Pistols firing! Tate and Chettles took Dad's golf cart for a spin around the neighborhood!
"Mockey and the Boys!"
Thankful for the way these two have shown up for me over the past 15+ years... their Godly wisdom, genuine support, and all the laughter they bring into my life has gotten me through some rough seasons and shaped who I am today!
Parker and Ellie had fun hanging out with Dad!
We were first in line for the group pic, so Rach snapped this picture of us... just Chet, JEM, Ellie, me, Vivian, and Michaela! ;-)
The Jaceman did a brave-and-entertaining early Polar Bear plunge jump into the very cold pool, a preview of Chet's New Year's day party! lol
Mother/daughter pic by the Christmas banner! (Kudos to Jen Hatmaker's "Black Friday deals" Amazon list for this red blazer jacket - a random pop-up on FB since I don't even follow her at this point, but I'm a fan of this cuteness!!)
A Mockey Little Christmas #8 (hosted by Mom) was a success! I'm grateful my friends traveled from Tulsa to join our fam in OKC for this party for the 4th year in a row, and I'm grateful Tman and J&K were all able to come, and I'm happy that we had no drama or visits from the police this year!! lol
Mom came over last night and we worked on my home office a bit, working on closet shelves + cleaning and hanging my Oklahoma CSR, Texas CSR, RPR license, SNU diploma, and Chi Sigma Iota certificate... and most importantly, the red mirror that started in Mom's CR office in Lawton in 1977 and has been with me in Grady County, Creek County, and Cleveland County! ❤ Most people would wait and post a big reveal at the end, but I feel compelled to give little progress updates all along the way. lol
Anywho, happy Christmas week, everyone!! This glam-raccoon pic by the parks department made me laugh this week... and moments later, I asked ChatGPT to change my dress and headband to magenta-pink sequins. lol
❤ ❤ ❤
