HAPPY BIRTHDAY


Today is Aunt Goldie's birthday. When she was two years old I came along and made her an Auntie. She told some card playing buddies a while back that she hated me, I was playing also, they gasp, why do you hate her? She made me an aunt when I was just two years old was her reply. We got a big laugh out of that. I was her card partner and I think we won? :) Goldie was born in Oklahoma, the only baby of 12 children born out of Lamar County. No wonder she is odd. :) Just kidding, I love her and wish her a HAPPY BIRTHDAY and many more in years to come.

She will have a fit about this picture, but it was the last one made of the both of us and it is awful, but what is two old 80 years old plus women supposed to look like. She has not seen the picture and probably won't unless someone prints it off and sends it to her. Well, after looking at the picture I did not have the nerve to use it. This picture was taken in 2004 at her sons wedding. It is really good of her.

Again, Happy Birthday Auntie.

MY GRANDDAUGHTER


My granddaughter decided to be a bird and fly. :)

How to do that you ask? Well, she went up in an airplane and SKY DIVED. Wasn't she brave? And she loved it and will do it again she says. Just don't tell me Kim until you are on the ground again. Because it was her first dive she had to have an instructor fly with her. Here they are in the free fall I guess. I do not see a parachute any where.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY





Today is Wanda's birthday. From now until November we are the same age, then I get ahead of her again until 16 July 2009. Birthdays are fun, don't you think?

This is a picture that was taken in 1950 in Dallas. It is a picture of Wanda, Duane and Chester. We had gone to Dallas to visit Wanda before she married. I would say it must have been Easter and we had been to church. I love this picture of all three of them.

Here is a really good picture of Wanda and Earl taken at their 50th. Anniversary Party in 2003. Their daughter and son-in-law honored them with a beautiful party attended by many.

This the last picture was taken in 2007 for their church directory, it is really a good picture of both of them.


Have a great birthday Wanda. We all love you.

Summer Visitors



My youngest daughter and her family are here for a 4th. of July visit. What fun to have a house full, and not just me hanging around looking for something to do. They brought the two granddoggies also, so Crackers has company.


We will go to the Concert and Fire Works tonight, then the Grand Parade tomorrow morning. Friday night the whole family will meet at Denise and Larry's home for hot dogs and fire works again. It is so much fun to have a big family. I love them all.

At noonish tomorrow I will go to the Sirlion Stockade and meet with the Fords Academy Reunion. They are people who was displaced when Camp Maxey was built back in the early 1940's. The group is getting much smaller now, but it is fun to listen to them talk and visit. My Mother and Daddy grew up in the area and I lived there also when I was much, much younger. :)
