    • ]]>     Sorry to confuse.. I, of course, was referring to Christmas for the house-junkies, more commonly known as The Parade of Homes.

    Only today and tomorrow remain for those of us who can’t get enough of touring the new homes available throughout the metro area, so get out and enjoy what promises to be a beautiful day, and maybe we’ll bump into each other here and there!

    • ]]>     It’s amazing how many people I know who really look forward to the annual Parade of Homes, almost like they look forward to Christmas. Whether it’s to enjoy the homes or pick up some decor tips, they REALLY get into this time of year!

    Having lived in Oklahoma my whole life, it’s easy to take it for granted and not really appreciate how good we have it here in Oklahoma, but I was recently reminded of that by a few facebook friends.

    During ‘The Parade,’ our local builders really pull out all the stops and go above and beyond to show off their talents to us, so get out and enjoy it this week!

    • ]]>     It’s funny to me that, even with all the progress our great metro has seen over the past decade or so, the images conjured up when someone mentions Oklahoma are still often of dustbowl history.  Oftentimes people don’t travel here because they honestly believe that there’s nothing here worth seeing, but as anyone who’s visited lately can tell you, things have changed, and dramatically!  Here’s an interesting read that sums up some of modern-day Oklahoma City and other local issues of interest and appeal.
