Going Through Life One Post at a Time
John stayed home from school yesterday and again today. As we were driving home from Cape Girardeau, John called to say that his ear hurt, so I made an appointment at Mizzou Quick Care. Sure enough, he had an ear infection. Here is to hoping that the antibiotics kick in quick, and he feels better before family arrives tomorrow.
Andy and I have been wanting to try the Top of the Marq restaurant in Cape Girardeau for a while now. The food was amazing, and the drinks were just as good. Unfortunately, the only picture that I took all day was of the Christmas tree in the Marquette Tower building, but it is still a reminder of a great dinner spent with my husband.
Since we are in Cape Girardeau until Tuesday, Andy and I decided to spend a little time celebrating our anniversary. We did not take a trip on our anniversary, so we made the most of this trip. We spent the day at River Ridge Winery outside Scott City, Missouri.
We discovered a lot of very tasty, dry wines that we really loved. We also enjoyed good food and live music by the fireside.
We wrapped up the evening enjoying dinner at Mary Jane Bourbon + Smokehouse with Laura.
It was the perfect day.
It was a great day watching Laura march with the SEMO Marching Band.
The pirate-themed halftime show was just so fun! I am so glad that we could finally come see her this season.
We are in Cape Girardeau to watch Laura march tomorrow. We are so glad to see our girl!
Laura’s book Advent calendar is stacked and ready for her to open!
The SEMO Marching Band announced the Leadership Team for the 2026 band, and Laura was selected as one of the Clarinet section leaders, for Band Council, and also the retention team. Congratulations, Red!
