I just wanted everyone to see how beautiful my niece Cammy is. Her wedding up in the mountains was really very picturesque, and look at these two ... pretty!
Gary is now 15 years sober and clean! Quite a feat. Bekky sent him a birthday pizza with 15 made in pepperoni, the pizza man came to the door and Gary was ready to tell him that we did'nt order any pizza, Bekky had sent it to him as a suprise. It did just that! Thanks for putting your sobriety 1st in your life Gary. We love you and the effort that you put out in staying sober. Good Job!
So when Bekky and her family moved out to San Jose a couple of years ago, I went along to help her move. While we were driving across the big barren Nevada desert, the song "Big log" by Robert Plant came on and ever since it has reminded me of that nite and how sad I was. It always gives me a feeling of loss, sadness and nostagia.
We wanted to get a fun nice playset for the grandkids to play on when they come to visit.... The package said we should be able to complete it in 6 to 12 hours depending on skill level...
Well it took Gary and I and Tyler 3 weekends to put it all together. A special thanks to Jay and Ryan and Wendy for helping me get it and unload it in the back yard. ;)
Our skill level must not be too good we thought that maybe the guys from Hidden Hollow might be able to help us next time. We love our new playset and I think it was well worth the time and money!
Tyler graduate's from University of the Pacific McGeorge School of Law. Yeah for Tyler and his family.
Here's a cheesy shot I think someone is happy he's graduating!
The kids got to walk(or be carried) across the stage! Standing in the 103 degree heat getting pictures taken. We were happy. There were some interesting people there as well, I saw mini skirts and tube tops on one of the moms. She kinda pulled it off, but not really appropriate.
Dinner afterwards by the Sacramento river, the little girs played with the empty clams shells. (Of course)
Gary and I are empty nesters, and were trying to get use to not having any kids here to keep us running. Were hoping that one or two of them will decide to come home and we can then be busy with the grandkids.
Some of you will notice the music i've picked to be in my background.
"I'll melt with you" by Modern English is Gary's and I's song, well that's the way I see it. If you ask Gary he'll tell you that Styx's "Babe" is our song, well that's kind of sweet but it's Modern English.
Anyway some of the music is sentimental, some of it just has a really good beat and I can dance to it Dick.
