51st Birthday

(Community Matters) Cirque du Soleil’s O with Luke Saturday night. Dinner after at the Cosmopolitan joined by his senior staff members and Angela his boss from Chicago.

Spent the day just me and Steven, mostly touring Hoover Dam which we loved.

I’d been to the Hoover Dam, at least twice before, but touring America as a 40-something and 50-something adult is so different – much greater appreciation for what we’ve built, for what our parents and grandparents sacrificed to build this country’s infrastructure.

we have the best nephews, nieces and godchildren – not to mention parents, and good gosh, don’t get me going on how lucky I am that Steven is my husband. Life is good

gotta love those cheesy superimposed tourist pictures 🙂

  1. Best wishes for a most divine new birthday year. And don’t get us going on how lucky we all are that you are on the planet!!!! Happy B’day!

  2. You don’t know this, I only figured it out within the last year or so, but you and Steven have touched my life in a couple of ways:

    #1. You two opened my (then 16 year old) daughter’s Far West Texas world when you graciously hosted the 2005 McCombs High School MEFA class for dinner at your house. Being accepted into the summer program was life changing for her. She’s now a Terry Scholar majoring in special education at UT.

    #2. In 2009, serendipity put me in Austin at just the right time to discover RISE Austin where I was oh-so-blessed to have been at Steven’s “A life of Meaning” session. I still can’t believe my luck.

    I can’t remember when or how I finally made the connection, but I want y’all to know how very grateful I am to you both.
