Palm Sunday visitors...

Sister Clarice came by for brunch. She had much to tell us about her last adventure...her LAST trip......through the Panama Canal and up Mexico coast. She leaves for Houston April 24 but is taking the scenic route by the way of San Diego to see her brother, and then visiting all the way to Texas. We will sure miss her!!!!!

worth a thousand words....

Happy birthday Bobby...

We will be celebrating Bobby's birthday on

Confirmation 2010

Marie and Martin Cheim were confirmed at 5 p.m. at St. Thomas More Church. Marie's sponser was her aunt Annette and Martin's was his Grandpa. There must have been 500 people there!!! The photos are bad and I am putting them in the order I took them. Father started things out by giving instructions on confirmation etiquette.









wasn't close enough to see them confirmed but got a shot of Grandpa following Martin out.
sigh...sorry about the bad pics.

sweet faces from 2009

visit with June...

A very nice visit with June Cheim today. She has a very lovely home overlooking a small pond (seems so secluded with trees). Her house was a surprise ...I would never have guessed that she is a collector...and practically wall papered walls with pictures!!! A delicious lunch at the club.

They flew a flag at Oak Hill cemetery today honoring Leo for his time in the service.

lovely lilies.....

a pre Easter gift from Fred and Cathleenlove the lilies and your visit, Fred xo

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Chef Roberto...

Bobby invited us over for dinner Sunday night. He cooked up a gourmet meal......pork and noodles and asparagus. Very delicious. We all had seconds!!

Because of daylight savings time we got there a little early or was it late??? While Bob was cooking I had a chance to take some photos of his yard and house...looking good!!

simmering in the pot....

happy campers...

a look around his house and yard

Short and sweet...hustled on our way..in spite of daylight savings.....to beat the sunset and just made it. Didn't even take time for a cribbage game!!!
