Dinner in Vegas

It's always a treat to have a tasty dinner when you go to Vegas. We had our dinner at Paris, for the life of me I can't remember the name of the place. I do remember that I ordered escargot. Corrina wasn't that impressed with that appetizer! After dinner, we headed back to Harrahs and caught the show in the Comedy Club. So, I would say that a fantastic meal, company and great laughs make a weekend in Vegas a must! I'm ready to go again!!!

Mel and Grandma's Glasses

Look how large Melanie's eyes look while she's wearing my glasses! I wonder if they make my own eyes seem larger and more alert! LOL, I doubt it. I can remember wearing my grandmother's glasses when I was a child. Everything seemed as though I was in a "fun house", the floors seemed to move and everyone looked strange! I wonder what Melanie saw? I'll have to ask her.

Viva Las Vegas!

A weekend in Las Vegas with girlfriends is a blast!!! We stayed at Harrah's, thanks to friends with points! Gambling wasn't always the main event of the day! In the top photo, we are at the Bellagio. It's fun to check out other hotels on the Strip. In the other photo, we are at the outlet mall enjoying shots that Corrina bought for all of us (except for Karen). A great day was had by all and a fun evening coming up!

What's so good about parties?

Little Rudy will tell you that it's all about cupcakes, candy and more candy at parties! These were taken at Isabel's third party this past June, 2009. He was certainly having a great time destroying the cupcake he was eating.

El Perico

El Perico was one of our favorite restaurants for quite a few years. We still enjoy it but the cost of their Cadillac Margarita is more than a meal! LOL.....here we are in front of the "original" El Perico back in 2004. It was a small place and became quite a popular dining spot for the Upland area. They now have a much larger site and still the best guacamole in town!

The Party's Over!

Just some more party faces. Here are Roy, Michael and Stephanie. It is always a special evening when you are able to surround yourself with loved ones. Let's have another party!!!!!

Family & Friends, Page 2

Page two of "Family and Friends" shows some of the fun everyone was having. Playing music, singing, visiting and enjoying grown-up beverages! It was a great evening to be had by all. A fantastic celebration hosted by Anna and Scott!

Family & Friends, page 1

We are still celebrating Heather's 30th!!! Here is page 1 of "Family & Friends". That's the perfect combo for a perfect party! One of my favorite songs is "Holiday" by Madonna...come on let's celebrate!!!! I love how everyone looks so happy in the pictures! They all love Heather!

Heather and Friends

Heather's 30th birthday will be the focus of my next series of pages! It was just yesterday that we were celebrating her very special birthday. Ok, maybe not just yesterday LOL and this week she will be having her birthday fete in North Carolina. I hear Isabel is going to make her a chocolate cake and that butterflies will be the theme of her party! Heather's wonderful friends, Anna and Scott, hosted her 30th. Here are Madison (Anna's daughter) and her very dear friend from high school, Abby. Heather and Abby look the same as they did back in their teen years.

My Grandparents 50th Anniversary

Here are my grandparents at their 50th Wedding Anniversary (1977). They were the best grandparents a grandchild could ever want. My grandma was the "boss" of the entire family and my grandpa was a quiet man. It was so much fun to listen to her tell him what to do and he would say, "Oh God night".......and then he would do whatever she wanted. They were very loved and they are very missed!
