Father's Day Weekend

We celebrated uncle Hubert's birthday today and father's day.  Mom, Dad, Sarah & Hub came over and we visited on the back porch and went to The Bluffs restaurant at the marina for lunch and afterwards had a piece of cake at the house.  It was an enjoyable day to remember.

Graduation Celebration!

My youngest nephew, David, graduated with an associates in Surgical Technology, as well as his girlfriend, Heather. They worked and studied so hard, putting in 4 a.m. shifts, driving to several hospitals for clinical, this deserved celebrating!  We gathered under a shady pavilion at Millie Harris park in Harrison where we enjoyed a casual gathering of family near the water.  White and black balloons with stars decorated the posts of the pavilion and I draped the center table in a white table cloth scattered with black, silver, and gold confetti.  We served pizza (david's favorite) and a special cake was made by Shelby Lynn's Cake Shop in their honor decorated with black swirls and a red band around the bottom of the cake.  Matching plates and napkins finished the look.  I'm so proud of their accomplishment and am excited to see their futures!

Alexander

Two months ago today we lost our Alex. It's been quite an adjustment. We still miss him dearly.  He brought a tremendous amount of joy to our lives.

"Hey Mom, is that your camera?"

"You gonna take my picture?"


Rest In Peace, Sweet Alex
