Anniversary Weekend

Papa and I celebrated 39 years of marriage on Sunday! That seems like a lifetime ago! I would like to be young again, but I do not want to live my life again. I am the happiest that I have ever been now, at my old age. I have good relationships with my dear daughters, sons in law and the best ever with mi nietos, Asa and Valentina. Papa and I are at a great time in our marriage also. Life is good!!!!!

Saturday night we got dressed up and went to the Yakima Valley to see if we could find a mexican bar that would have live music so we could dance. We had three places that we would go to before, but they had closed down, (due to too many fights). We decided to try another place we had been to years ago, but when we got there, nothing was going on, but the owner said they was going to have a dance across the street. We went over to Ixtapa and had the best time ever!!!! We danced all night and had so much fun. Everyone at that bar was so nice, friendly and fun, we cannot wait to go back for Papa's birthday next month!

We came back to Vancouver on Sunday afternoon and it was good to see our babies again. Trina and Cameo along with the angels and I spent all afternoon shopping yesterday, had a great day. The kids are so good!!!! Life is great!!!!!

It's been a while.........

Well, I have been busy since I last posted with, most importantly a trip to Guatemala to pick up our baby girl angel!! It is so good to have her home where she belongs. I cannot wait to get up in the morning to go and play with her. She is a blessing, as is our first angel, Asa! Have I mentioned I LOVE being a grandma? I have two wonderful grandbabies!!!!

Since Valentina was 10 months old when she came home, I started thinking about my babies at that age, so I took pictures of pictures again, and here are my babies between the ages of 8-12 months. I think they are so cute!!!!

Cameo at 6 months

Asa at 9 months

Trina at 8 months old

Cameo at 11 months old

Trina at 10 months

I am so blessed to have two wonderful grandbabies that I can enjoy everyday.

Thank you God for the blessings of My husband Papa, and my daughters and their families. Trina, Josh and Asa, and Cameo, Norm and Valentina. I am so very very blessed.

I went to visit my dear mom at the care center last week. She is doing about the same, weight keeping at 80 pounds. She is always so glad to see me when I come and is so sad and crys when I leave her. It is so hard to leave her, but this time my niece, Denice was there visiting from Alaska, so she was okay when I left. Kind of.... I am so thankful she remembers who her kids are yet, I know the day will come when she doesn't but as yet she does and I am glad for that.

My dear mother and I on Saturday.
