Clifford!s 1st birthday

  I can't even believe that my little grandson is already one year old.  I love how he studies everything and everyone so intensely.  Makes me wonder what he thinks.

Cruise fun

Karen love this place!


Cherrie 


I still can't believe I finally got my friend Cherrie to go with me on a cruise.  Going into this cruise I was fully aware that this wasn't her happy spot.  So far we have explored the ship.  We have ate good food and watched the people.  
I always enjoy the piano bar on every ship I get on.  Seem to take many photos in this area before it opens.  Cherrie probably didn't have a clue that on cruises my inner photographer comes out.  Although when I get home I'm like I wish I had taken more pictures.  
So very glad to be on a cruise this year!

Carnival Dream room 9201


Out little hallway into room.

Our vanity area

Not sure why the bathroom pictures turned out greenish.



Plenty of closet space.  Wish I had taken more pictures of our room. 


 Loved our room.  It was very spacious on deck 9.  We were at the very front of the ship.  Which means we did a lot of walking.  Our dining room was at the back of the ship on deck 3.  I hope to always get this type of room.
It had a window.but was considered an interior room.  When Cherrie seen the interior rooms she was like wow this is a big room.  Very worth the money!
This was Cherrie’s first time to cruise. Not sure if she is a fan or not but glad she went with me.  Overall the cruise was good.

Starting Naturally Slim

Day one

I am starting the Naturally slim Program this week.  So I decided to go to my Dr.   I wanted to get weighed and measured.  It was a real eye opener.  I know that I am big...but seeing the numbers made it all so real.   
What I really am working on this week is no soda pop's.  Which will be the hardest part of this program.  I also am going to try just cutting down on amount of food I am eating.  I also am continuing to walk each day.  Some days it more than others.  But I am trying to get my exercise in each week.  Haven't done that in years.  
Need to get my blood pressure under control.  It is 165/112.  Yikes!!
wish me lots of luck!!

National sibling day

Stacy, me Thomas, Lonnie, Karen Sue, and Tyler

This photo is four years old.  But I will always love this picture of us together.  It is probably the only picture of all of us together.  How crazy is that?   I am not sure why we didn't take more pictures thru the years.   I can almost guarantee that there will never be a picture of all of us together. 
The main reason is Stacy will never come back to Oklahoma.  He is having health and legal issues. If I am ever going to see him again  I need to plan a trip to El Paso Texas.  It is around 10 hours away.  Maybe I can plan a long weekend to see him this summer.  Trying to figure out if it is cheaper to drive or fly.  Would have more time if I fly to to see him.   
This family is my world!

Aunt Ginger

Aunt Ginger, Casey and Lynn

Aunt Ginger Wendy and Brian

Barney, my mom and Aunt Ginger.

Aunt Ginger and Uncle David

With a heavy heart my Aunt Ginger passed today.  She has been in bad health for awhile.  Aunt Kathy and I was planning a trip to see her in May.  Aunt Ginger was full of life.  She loved to joke around and have fun.  Every single trip to visit with her she always shares great memories with me.  
Aunt Ginger was always offering us Little Debbie's snack foods.   In fact when she passed she had so many boxes of assorted snacks that it was almost comical.  
I know she is no longer in pain.  Fly high sweet angel your going to be missed greatly!!! 

Dinner with Aaron's family

Aaron, Clifford, Angel and me

Angel Michelle and baby Clifford

Baby boy Clifford

Angel being a big girl!


A perfect evening with Aaron and his family!  We met at Applebee's in Duncan Okla around 4pm. Was very nice to spend time with his family.  I need to be more involved with my boys and their families.  
Wesley was sick so he stayed with his great grandparents.  Hope that next time we can get all the family to go eat with us.  Truth be known I wouldn't mind taking them to McDonald's or Braums 
so the little kids can play on the playground.  I'm not sure if Aaron and Michelle take the time to let them run and play at either fast food place. so that would be a treat for the kiddo's.  Maybe I should take Angel and Wesley for a afternoon to give the parents a break.
