Happy Birthday GG

Reagan wants to sing to GG, All the Irelands want to wish her a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! We LOVE YOU GG.

Homeless man, his dog, cat and rat.

Today as we shopped up & down State St. in Santa Barbara we see this homeless guy walking his cat and dog on leashes and the other little creature is his pet rat. This was one of the wildest things I've ever seen. Several times as they would just stroll down the street, the cat and rat would get a ride from their friend the dog. I couldn't believe my eyes.

Georgie and I watched a movie all the way to Santa Barbara. I love my new Lexus!! who said the entertainment system was just for kids.

Crosby, Stills & Nash Concert 07/18/08

Steve and I went to the Santa Barbara Bowl Wednesday night with are good friends Bruce and Georgie, the other two beautiful girls are Angela and Peggy, they pour wine in the tasting room at "Concilence" in Los Olivos. they joined us for dinner at "Chad's" a wonderful restaurant suggested by Bruce. (great choice Bruce). The concert was awesome with a perfect Full Moon rising over the ocean and a still night of about 75 degrees. We had SO much fun.

KARMA you will be missed!

Sometimes life takes an unexpected turn and we're left wondering why. My daughter-in-law Molly just lost her grandmother "Karma" and our family wish to extend our deepest sympathy to her and her family. We had the pleasure of meeting Karma last July at Sean and Molly's wedding, she was delightful and very funny, my mother had a wonderful time just sitting and talking with her all night at the rehearsal dinner. I definitely met my match, word economy has never been my strong suit and Karma could out talk me. ha ha

Karma was a beautiful woman and will be missed by everyone.

Happy Birthday Molly!!

On Sunday night the 8th we through a little dinner party honoring Molly! It was her birthday on the 6th. Steve and I love her and Sean's group of friends. Check out the Fun!!

The Gang

Steve and I hosted a "Gang" gathering last Saturday night the 7th at our home. This is a wonderful group of old High School friends that we've stayed in touch with over the years and really enjoy our time with them.

Someone recently told me "you can't do anything about getting older, but we can choose to never grow up".

Baby Furniture Shopping

Molly and I spent last Sunday shopping for their baby furniture, and she selected the sweetest "rubbed white" crib, Armour/dresser/changing table and a book case. She and Sean are expecting their 1st in Sept. Don't be confused by the "Blue" bedding, we're told so far it's a Girl!!

My Grand-girls

Well it's been a little while since I've "Blogged" I have these very cute pictures of my grand-girls to share with everyone! Reagan loves her little sis and Paige (here at 1 month) has the sweetest mellow spirit, she reminds me of her Uncle Sean he was also very calm and happy all the time. Don't cha just want to pinch those sweet cheeks on Reagan.....xoxo
