Weekend Get-Together

The Barrs from Tulsa and Shreveport came in over the weekend to attend the beautiful Christmas Festival at Prestonwood Baptist Church. You can click here to see highlights of the show. As usual, we had a great time visiting, reminiscing, and kidding around with each other.

When John and family arrived, Jacob and Josh greeted them wearing Ohio State shirts (notice John is in purple). In this photo, the boys are saying "Go, Bucs". John's reply of course was
"Go, Tigers".


These photos were taken Sunday just before we left for the Festival.



The plan was for all to return home after the concert but Tom and Linda had to stay over until Tuesday morning because of icy roads in Oklahoma. I talked to Tom today and they did make it home safely but they along with thousands of others have no electricity and are staying with friends. Hopefully, their electricity will be restored soon and not as long as a week as Tom had heard it may take!

Ok, I must comment on each photo.

1. I enlarged this photo and see the jukebox in the background. A Mel Patton home will always have a jukebox - it's the law.

2. In this photo I know that John has just cracked a joke.

3. The adults look happy and festive in this picture.

4. And in this one I know that Aaron is standing on a stool - he CAN'T be that tall.

Ya'll must have had a great time - (I am envious I wasn't there...)

Aaron isn't standing on a stool. I think he is over 6 ft. and growing.

Wish you could have been with us.

Tom's still without electricity as of today.
