Good times - Cancun

It was a hot and humid afternoon and nothing tastes better than a nice, cold glass of beer!  There was a great shopping area across the street from the resort with many places to choose from to shop, eat and enjoy some happy hour fun!  Mas cervezas por mi amigos por favor!

Our Little Taste of Cuba

This morning, we decided to take a little walk to a liquor store we heard was pretty good.  Once we were there, we discovered that there was a guy selling Cuban coffee and cigars.  We bypassed the cigars and enjoyed some very tasty coffee out on the deck!  These are moments I treasure! Good times with good friends!

My Baby Sister Nancy - Christmas 1965

This is one of the sweetest faces I have ever known!  My baby sister, Nancy!  I love how this photo shows such love and trust for Santa Claus.  I love Nancy so much, so many protective memories came rushing back to me just by looking at her little face.  Nancy, you still have that cute little smile!

Birthday celebrations when you are in pre-school are so much fun!  You get to wear a crown, your mother brings special treats and your very first teacher, Mrs. Galvan leads everyone in singing to you!  What a great day!

Brenna's 21st Birthday

Here we are celebrating Brenna's 21st birthday at Buca de Beppo in Las Vegas, 2002!  Helping us with the festivities are our Crockett family, Heather and Rudy.  I love eating at the Pope's table!  
I know Bill was there taking the picture.  This group photo means a lot to us because this was the last time we were with Morgan.  It was a most enjoyable birthday.

My Grandmother 1983

I am having a blast going through the photos of my children and running across some real gems. This happens to be one of them.  Here I am with Brenna (two years old) and my grandmother.  To this day, I miss her so much - she taught me so much about loving her grandchildren unconditionally.  She also taught me that it is so much better to go out for dinner instead of cooking.  She knew how to live!
