Family Portrait

We decided to get a portrait for Robert's mom for christmas. So here she is with all her kids. Starting at the top and going left to right, Robert, Gina, Anthony, Patricia. Middle Gen, Denise, Barbara. Bottom David, Ann (Robert's mom), and Steven. It looked like a big family union in the waiting area. It was fun to see everyone together. That rarely happens anymore.

More pictures of Dad's birthday

Here are some of the people that had come to the party. At this table was Robert's mom (Ann) and her husband Tony, Robert's sister Gen, Robert's son Daniel and his girlfriend Sarah. These are some friends of my dad's. First is Diane, Rita's daughter and her son Jason, then I think it's Diane, Suetta, Letty and Anabel.

This is Jennifer and David also friends of my dad's.

Here are my cousins Tiffany, Jackie, her boyfriend, Shawn, and my aunt Patti.

Dad's 75th birthday party

This weekend we celebrated my dad's 75th birthday. We flew in for one day and surprised him. It was great!!! He was very surprised. His brother Warren also came in from Kansas and surprised him. I'm glad we didn't give him a heart attack. We had about 35 people at the cooperage. Everyone really enjoyed themselves. I'm so glad we got to celebrate with him. Here is his cake. This is Rita his wife and my dad of course and me.

Here are me and my brother Larry with my dad.

This is my dad's brother Warren and his wife Wilma. My dad said this will be the most memorable birthday he has ever had.

My dying plant

Here is my poor elephant ears plant that I transplanted a few weeks ago. I guess it's not going so well. I've never been a green thumb, but love to have plants, but don't have too many because I always kill them off. Maybe when it warms up it will come back. They are suppose to be very hardy plants.

All Bets Are On!!!

Marrissa bet Robert that she could jog for a mile and a half without stopping. So he took her up on the bet. If she could do it he'd give her $20 and if not she owed him $20. So here they are stretching. Here they are ready to go Jogging!!! We are the champions!!! Ha Ha

Here they are on the cool down walk. So do you think she won the bet?

No, she went a mile then stopped to walk. She really did do a great job. I can't jog a mile so I give her credit. Robert said he give her a little something for trying and almost getting it. Isn't he a great dad!!!
