Fun Times in Texas!

My husband, John Pisiona and I left for Texas on September 4^th. My first event was at a book signing in Ft. Worth at the University Park Village Barnes & Noble store on the 5th. So many dear friends I made while Deborah was dying came to support me. I was honored to have my brother-in-law Ron Hall with me. I had an opportunity to do my first reading from my book!

The next afternoon one of my dear friends from Snyder, TX where we grew up had a beautiful get together so I could meet many of her friends.

On the 7^th I had my next book signing in Dallas at the Barnes & Noble on W Northwest Freeway. Again Ron and family were there to support me.

Bob and Anne Snelling had a book signing on the 8^th at their beautiful home in Frisco. My husband and I were made to feel so special.

Andrea Taylor, who co-authored and published “Our Southern Breeze” and her husband Jerry, had an open house for John and me on the 9th. I was able to meet her precious family and several friends that I missed seeing at my book launch in Dallas when I had emergency surgery!  She is a big Starbucks “girl” and had each person autograph a coffee mug for a keepsake!

The evening of the 9^th several dear friends hosted a dinner for John and me at a wonderful Mexican food restaurant. Not all of Deborah’s close friends could make it but seeing so many people she loved was truly a blessing. It thrills me to hear that our voices are identical. What as honor to have been chosen by God to be her twin sister.

On the 10^th I was off to Austin and John left for Atlanta.

Sue and Ken Langston opened their home for me to stay until the 15^th. My final book signing was at the Arboretum Barnes & Noble store. Many of my dear friends from years ago were there to celebrate with me. It was a wonderful evening.

The remainder of the books in each store were autographed and displayed to be sold.  Those two weeks were filled with memories I will never forget.
