Our Family Celebrates!

For the past eleven years, our family has been spending a week in a lovely home in Kitty Hawk,  North Carolina.  Our friends Ann and Larry Sharp, the owners of this perfect getaway place, have been most kind and gracious to our family. 

Summer Reading At Its Best… Lively Discussions With My Storytelling Friends At The Armed Forces Home

Family reunions to attend, vacations with friends and loved ones, and sightseeing in our very own nation’s capital can definitely make for a busy and fun filled summer.  When "Glenna's Book Club" at The Armed Forces Retirement Home, Washington, D.C. decided to take some pauses and enjoy travels and vacations during the months of June, July, and August, we all decided that we would continue to read and then share our thoughts about the books that we had selected for our summer reading list.

An Evening Of Beautiful Music And Friendship

On Tuesday evening, July 24, at Immaculate Heart Of Mary Catholic Church, Hayesville, North Carolina a musical event featuring performances of inspirational, sacred, and Broadway compositions was held to benefit the Madelyn Lea Memorial Scholarship Fund.  Annually, a deserving Hayesville High School student is the recipient of this lovely award - this year's scholarship winner is Bethany Anderson.  Bethany sang "In My Dreams" from the musical, Anastasia, and "Someone Like You" by Adele.  Her performances were both captivating and endearing.  Bethany will be attending Saint Ambrose University, Davenport, Iowa and it is there that she will continue to pursue her musical dreams.

A Remarkable Adventure

Recently, Hunter McIntosh, a friend to my late daughter, Erinn Kristen Orr, invited my daughter's son Charlie, myself, and my husband Bob Orr to make a journey on his boat, THE LISERON. 

"Books + Friendship = Book Club" *

Wednesday afternoons at The Armed Forces Retirement Home located in Washington, DC, just outside the doors of the main library in a lovely reading room, the book club that has routinely met beginning September of 2017 continues to read, discuss, and critique great books. Being a member of "Glenna's Book Club," is such a fulfilling and all inspiring privilege-especially that I am sitting alongside America's Finest.

Meet Mila! She Found Us...

For more years than I can recall, our family has been surrounded by some of the most unique and irresistible four-legged creatures. More often than not, our family pets have found their way to us. Just recently while working with a national pet adoption service, we met and became the caregivers for one delightful six month old named Mila. Mila has won the hearts of our family...including our six year old rough and tough BOLT!
