Funny Friday Features Highland Park

Welcome to Highland Park, TX – Where Luxury Meets Legacy

Tucked just north of downtown Dallas, Highland Park isn’t just a neighborhood—it’s a lifestyle wrapped in manicured hedges and draped in old-money charm. Think Beverly Hills with a Texas twang.

From tree-lined streets to shopping that’s more “couture” than “casual,” this enclave offers timeless architecture, top-tier schools, and a police response time faster than your Amazon Prime delivery. And yes, the chandeliers here probably cost more than your car—but don’t worry, everyone’s very polite about it.

Looking for walkable luxury? Snag brunch at Café Pacific, stroll through Highland Park Village (America’s first outdoor shopping center—because why not set the trend and shop it?), and still be home in time for cocktails on your limestone terrace.

In Highland Park, the grass is greener—because someone’s paid handsomely to keep it that way.

We love Highland Park. And Debbie Murray at Allie Beth Allman & Associates does too! Enjoy your Friday.

The History of Veterans Day

The History of Veterans Day

Veterans Day, observed each year on November 11, honors the bravery, sacrifice, and service of all U.S. military veterans. Its origins trace back to the end of World War I, a conflict that involved nations across the globe and ended on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month in 1918, when an armistice—an agreement to end the fighting—was signed between the Allied nations and Germany. This moment marked not only the cessation of hostilities but also the birth of what was first known as Armistice Day.

In 1919, President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed November 11 as Armistice Day, a day dedicated to reflecting on the heroism of those who served in “the war to end all wars.” Congress made it an official national holiday in 1938, primarily honoring World War I veterans. However, following World War II and the Korean War, there was a growing desire to recognize the service of all American veterans, not just those from the First World War.

In 1954, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed legislation changing the name from Armistice Day to Veterans Day, officially expanding its purpose to honor veterans of all U.S. wars. For a brief period in the 1970s, the date was changed to the fourth Monday in October under the Uniform Holiday Bill, but due to strong public sentiment, it was returned to November 11 in 1978.

Today, Veterans Day stands as a solemn and proud reminder of the courage, dedication, and sacrifices made by the men and women who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces. Unlike Memorial Day, which honors those who died in service, Veterans Day recognizes all who have served—living or deceased—united by their commitment to protect and defend the nation’s freedom.
