I LOVE (most things) GREEN!

My Favorite Color is...GREEN!

...Or can you tell I was bored at work today?? HA HA!

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!! XOXO!

Family/Cousin Pictures!

Chillin' with the siblings and cousins...

Being with all of them brings back so many fun memories. We spent the evening reminiscing and cracking up about the good ole' days and growing up ten minutes away from our cousins.

Some favorite highlights are:

Camping every summer at McGrath State Beach (somehow we managed to get our favorite spot every year!),

Silverstrand beach, Ventura, Jr. Rangers, Nature trail walks, "everybody out-grandma wants to be alone", the boys singing in the showers, caboodles, tandem bike rides, sneaky camouflage boys, eating out at Bob Big Boy!, Swensons ice cream, thrift store shopping (against our will), school clothes shopping at the mall, Pic n' Save, coloring books, reunion t-shirts, cousin sleep overs, rival h.s. football games...

Back: Neil, Leland, David, Kim, Clint

AND a HUGE thanks goes out to my aunt Nan for leaving her camera behind accidentally and giving us hours of enjoyment...

It was our pleasure to supply such creative photos to log into your precious camera. We took many random creepy photos of unmentionables (above is just one of many)...I have not laughed that hard in a long time!! Thanks NAN!!

(I bet you won't be leaving it behind ever again with us around!) HA HA HA!!

YOU WILL BE MISSED! Love you. XOXO

My grandma Jane was presented with the American flag that was draped over the coffin and told:

"On behalf of the President of the United States and the Chief of Naval Operations, please accept this flag as a symbol of our appreciation for your loved one's service to this Country and a grateful Navy."
