Family visits from Ok

It has been a long time since I have seen my nephew's Mom and family. We had good memories and sad memories. Memories of my brother, that past when my nephew was just 3 years old. It was a better sweet reunion. We got out the pictures of my nephew when he was 3. We talked about his dad and how he is a lot like him. We even had the privilege of having his God dad come and visit. My brother's best childhood friend. We talked and talked. It had been 15 years since we have seen them, but it was just like yesterday that day.






All good conversation, needs food!!




Time for a swim..







Reminiscing about old times.








This is how young adults and teenagers sleep..

A Special Day

Friday May 15th, 2009. My step dad was remarried. It has been a little over 1 year since Mom has past. I am happy for him, that he was able to find a wonderful wife. She is a very nice gal. Talks alot. LOL.. She has 4 children 3 of which are special needs. Great kids. She is perfect for Sterling and Crystal ( Sterling's daughter she is special needs) She has Spinal Bifida.
The evening was lovely. The setting was in Lakeport, Ca on the beautiful Clear Lake. It was at a bed and breakfast. The nicest thing was that the older gentleman that my mom used to take care of was there. They call him grandpa, they introduced me to him and showed me something my Mom made for him. It was a joyous day to celebrate life and new beginnings.

A perfect place to take pictures.
I love the first one. It is amazing the bond that Toma and Jacob are having as brother and sister.
