Mardi Gras Close to Home

September 20, 2015 By Wendi Warren

Honestly, I've never really felt the desire to go to New Orleans. I have nothing against the city, its just not on my bucket list. But I do like listening to jazz music from time to time. I had my chance on Saturday when downtown Wooster was filled with jazz. The Wooster Arts Jazz Fest took over downtown Wooster despite the wind and the threat of rain. Bobby and I were able to go there with my mom, Dolores, and one of our great nephews, Noah. The event was put on in partnership … [Read more...]

Weekend Filled with Music, Laughter and Good Friends

September 15, 2015 By Wendi Warren

Hey, had a great weekend with friends. I was invited by Jan Maxwell to go with a group of friends to Anita Renfroe and Natalie Grant Concert on Saturday. Sunday, I went with Angie Smith to see Vince Gill at the Wayne County Fair. (Seen above talking to the members of Keepsake, Kim Beckler, left, LaDean Knapp and Shirley Wharton.)  I'll be writing about both in the near future--make sure to watch for them. In the meantime, here is a video of Anita Renfroe doing one of my favorites. I hope you … [Read more...]

Hanging Out and Being a Kid Again

September 12, 2015 By Wendi Warren

I grew up with two sisters and would never consider myself very active. The most activity I did when I was a kid was either riding bikes or playing Barbies. But this past Sunday, September 6, I got to be all kinds of active while hanging out with De'Aveon and Noah in Lodi. They were up with their mom, Ashley, visiting Grandma and Grandpa. Spending a day with boys who are nine and five years old, can be quite exhausting. As soon as I arrived, Noah and I went downstairs to play a game of … [Read more...]

I Scream. You Scream. We all Scream for Pav’s Creamery!

September 10, 2015 By Wendi Warren

Have you ever had the experience of discovering something awesome by accident? I don’t have a lot of experiences like that, but I did just this past weekend. Pav’s Creamery is awesome!   Bobby and I took Owney to Portage Lakes State Park on Labor Day and on our way there we passed Pav’s Creamery. It is on the corner of Manchester Road and State Road. Bobby said we needed to stop there on our way back. I had no intention of doing such a thing. From the quick glimpse I had, it looked like some … [Read more...]

Portage Lakes State Park–A Great Way to End the Weekend

September 7, 2015 By Wendi Warren

Bobby and I had no set plans for Labor Day Weekend. Since I had been under the weather most of last week and he had been filling in for his boss while she was on vacation, we were looking forward to a restful and relaxing weekend. In fact, he made me promise to not plan anything on Saturday. Sunday was spent with our nephews, who were visiting in Lodi. We had a great time and that will be shared in another blog…stay tuned! By Monday, Bobby was open to the idea of doing something, … [Read more...]
