Getting ready for my day

I took this picture right after I brushed my hair.

Later, my hair is done (Christmas tree behind me)

Makeup all done and ready to clock in for work. Have a good day!

37 years

Last night we celebrated our anniversary at il cortile, an Italian restaurant in downtown Paso Robles. I had this heavenly Chilean sea bass and Kevin ordered osso bucco. For dessert we got the pans cotta. Look how cute they did up our dessert. By the way, best service ever!

New car (for us)

Kevin noticed our neighbor had a white hard-top Miata in his yard one day last month and went to ask him about buying the hard-top for our Miata and Burt, our neighbor told Kevin he was selling it. After a couple of test

drives and some discussion, we bought the car, not just the hard top. Over the weekend, we sold our silver Miata, after driving more than 12 years!

Second riverwalk

A couple of weeks ago, I suggested to Kevin that we walk the new section of the Salinas riverwalk. We both had Memorial Day off, so we made a date. We parked in the Walmart parking lot and walked under the Niblick bridge and all the way to the 13th street bridge and back to Walmart for our shopping. It's a nice walk! It took us about 55 minutes.

Casper

This sweet baby is 4 weeks old today!

Memorial Day 2013

A couple of years ago, Kyra suggested we go to Los Osos Valley Memorial Park to see mom and dad's gravesite. I had the day off (Kevin, too) and decided to go to Los Osos yesterday. I thought it would be good to meet there just before lunch. I cut some flowers at home and ties them into a posy.

We arrived there after the program and we saw a helicopter and fire truck. I thought Winslow would be really excited to see a helicopter up close and actually sit in the pilot's seat but he wasn't that impressed. He couldn't stop talking about the fire truck!

Winslow's ready to put out a fire!

Harvey and Gladys are Kevin's grandparents--

New member of the family

Born May 1, 2013 at 5:18am weighing in at 8 lbs and 21 inches long and a nice head of black hair!

A whale!

Kyra and brad were visiting the day of the academy awards show and before it started we went outside. Brad wanted Biggie to have a ride on Grizz's motorcycle. Well, Grizz couldn't start his motorcycle. When we were walking back to the house, Biggie said "a whale!" pointing to our propane tank.

Driving topless

This is how we roll, on the Central Coast. It seemed like a good idea when I suggested it on Sunday. It was warm and beautiful in Paso when we got ready to drive to San Luis. But the further we drove, the colder I got. So glad to arrive and warm up again. Needless to say, we put the top up for the drive home.

Daffodils, again!

When I went outside this morning, there were my daffodils, spreading sunshine for all the world to see.

Happy birthday to you!

Since I worked Saturday night, we celebrated Kevin's birthday last night. I baked chocolate chip cookies because Kevin loves them. I'm holding the candle on the cookie!

Winslow is a pillow hog!

Temple in Utah

Kevin and I took advantage of being in Utah and decided to go to the temple. Kevin chose the Draper Temple because he'd never been there. We drive out there from Danny's house and as I drove into the parking lot, I asked myself "where are all the cars?" Kevin looked it up and found out they were closed for maintenance. So I suggested going to the Oquirrh Mountain temple. This fountain is right outside the entrance to the temple.

The many faces of baby Zapp

Baby Shower!

Saturday, Jenny's mom threw a baby shower for her. You may ask where is the baby? She went out to lunch at an Argentine restaurant with her daddy and grandpa.

Creamy lobster mashed potatoes

Kevin and I went out to dinner the other night at Red Lobster and he ordered Creamy Lobster Mashed Potatoes to go with his flounder. So yummy!

Christmas--part tres

Looks like this is the last Disneyland picture. We had such a fun time! Take note of Mitchell's face (front right)

Brrr

If you look closely you can see the icicle hanging from the corner of the house.
I like the way the snow is melting on this roof.

Meeting our newest grandchild

Baby Violet ready to go with mama. Later that day we went to Tsunami for dinner, Jenny, Danny and Violet.
