Gordon and I rarely have a moment to ourselves, but today we were able to plan a short getaway to Stone Bluff, Oklahoma for the 7th annual Lavender and Wine Festival. People from surrounding regions are always so surprised when I tell them that Oklahoma has productive and thriving vineyards. The soil here in Northeastern Oklahoma is considered to be some of the richest dirt anywhere. I grew up just miles from Stone Bluff, where the fertile soil is a product of the sandy lome cultivated by the neighboring Arkansas River. My hometown, Bixby, is known as the Garden Spot of Oklahoma. I suppose that's why my gifted, gardening parents chose such an epicenter for our home and their muse. Below is a slide show featuring our super fun adventures today...
(btw...I did NOT have lunch at the festival. Check out the menu on the grease board...yikes!)

You are as beautiful as ever. And the festival looks like fun. I'd love to see lavender fields like that.
The juice feast gave you a little sparkle, I think. Or are you sparkling becuase it's finally over? :)

How odd to think that a beautiful wine & lavender festival should serve up food like that! Gross.
I hope you had a lovely raw snack somewhere in the car :-)
How cool that they really had lavender there! It was so pretty!
Penni, you look so healthy! You always did, but now you look even more so! How beautiful you are...and your husband, as I said before, is super cute!! ;-)

Lots of love to you,

Looks like a fun time! And I'm jealous over all the sunshine you had. :)
Wow! You're looking grrrrrreat!! I had to laugh at the grease menu shot, heh! The tongue shot looked like you're telling "juicy secrets" ;P
Ok sister you are looking FAN-TASTIC! Vibrant and radiant are the two words that keep coming to mind.
I've been eying that lasagna recipe too, think I'm going to have to indulge and whip that up for my party this friday!
