Crowns




Eric and I attended the Greater Lewisville Community Theater production of Crowns tonight. Teresa Ferrell Buntain, director, is a long time friend from R. L. Turner High School. The play portrays the importance of hats among African American woman of the south. The play continues next weekend too. It would be a great Mother's Day present to share this play.
I was reminded of my own mother's love for hats and how I loved to go to the hat shop with her. As they performed the old gospel hymn, His Eye is on the Sparrow, which was my mother's favorite, I could see her sitting at her organ, singing this song. As for the hats--apparently I thought they were pretty cool too!

Travis



This is my dog, Travis. You may notice that Travis thinks he's human. He enjoys getting up on the bed, put his head on the pillow and cover up with the comforter. He's a cute little Pomeranian. Right now he is sporting his spring hair cut, which makes him look very "foxy."

Stars Hockey

We lost tonight. There were some pretty stupid calls or lack of calls, but still we should have been able to put the series away tonight. Let's hope they can do that on Sunday and move on to the Western Conference championship game with Detroit. It will get interesting around here if that happens since my husband was born in raised in a Detroit suburb and is a loyal Red Wing fan.
