If you’ve already got your tickets to the Wolf Acoustic Christmas concert! Thanks for that, a part of the money you paid for your ticket will be going to the Salvation Army for their efforts to help those in need this holiday season. If you haven’t bought your ticket yet, I have something else you can do that would be equally helpful and that is to buy new 10 dollar toy and bring it to one of our ticket stops, Click Here to find out where we’ll be next. Or if it’s more convenient for you you can drop it off at our studios, at 7000 Squibb Rd. in Mission, KS. Or Click Here for directions. We’re open 8AM to 5:30PM Monday-Friday. I hope you can help us help some kids who might not get to have a Christmas without your help! Hope you and your family have a happy and safe holiday season! (WP)

What a show! 

By now, you guys know that I’m a sucker for awards shows.  Making predictions and rooting for your favorites can be just as much fun as watching sports!  THANKS to all of you who joined me on Facebook for an online ‘watch party’ during the 44th Annual CMA Awards.  We’ve hung out now during a number of awards shows — what a blast!

Here we are in November — how did that happen?   Wow, this year has been racing by, for sure!

This is a pic I snapped recently of some mums in our yard.  They’ve just passed their peak, so I’m glad I caught the photo when I did!  Maybe this sounds a little cheesy, but it’s like a little visual reminder to stop ‘n smell the flowers while they’re here.  

The holidays are almost here — it’s always a joyous time of year, but it also seems to go by way too fast! 

So this year, my aim is to get stuff planned and done as early as possible, and then spend the rest of the season just enjoying.  Let’s hope it works!  We all get so busy, but at least that’s the goal… Happy November!
