Jayden's Birthday-Valentine's






We had Jayden's Birthday dinner at our house and she wanted enchiladas, Spanish rice, beans, salad and of course chocolate cake....
Dave and I have shared many, many Valentine's Days together... like 42.... wow! It is still nice...
I made all the G-kids heart pillows. I even took pictures. Dave and I are having some G-kids here for Valentines so I made him a special dinner on Friday the 13th...I made Lobster tails, asparagus, big baked potatoes, cut up fresh fruit and finally white chocolate dipped strawberries for desert. Look at pictures....April are you proud of me...

Remebering my mom


I did not write in my blog for a long time.... My mom died on January 1st, 2009. She had broken her hip a while ago and never recovered from the complications, her hip healed but she was in so much pain. We had a nice service for her in Orange, Ca. I had the privilege of being able to do my mom's hair, nails and dress her. It was very special to me. Dave conducted and April gave the opening prayer, I gave the eulogy and did a way cool picture board and each person went home with a nice 4x6 picture of mom in her Navy uniform from WW2. Dave dedicated the grave and Jefferey did the throwing of the dirt, plus Susan sprinkled the Holy Water so mom was sent off by all. It is hard to believe that Dave and I have no living parents now. Dad died when he was just 60, so mom was a young widow in her 50's. Now they can dance...
