Mom's Visit

Mom decided she would drive to Calilfornia (alone). I admit I was a bit concerned over her driving so far alone but she did fine. We had a wonderful visit. My sister, Debbie drove over from Santa Barbara to spend a day with us.

Out for a morning walk. It was a beautiful morning. We decided to take advantage of the opportunity to enjoy the warm sunshine and admire the various gardens along the way.

Hello,

April has been an exciting month for us. Our son 'Adam' was married on April 11th, less than 48 hours after getting in engaged! It was a whirlwind planning but very fun and everything turned out beautiful. My only regret was such a short notice didn't allow time for many of Adam's family to attend (everyone lives in Oregon or Washington). These are a few pictures of our happy couple.

Guess who Rick is posing with? Here is a hint: He flys around the world Christmas Eve and leaves gifts under your tree!

Guess who we ran into during our cruise! Yes, Santa Claus! He was enjoying a little relaxation following Christmas! He looks a little different without his official Santa Suit!

Rick and I celebrated our 26th wedding aniversary cruising! We enjoyed 4-nights on the ship 'Paradise' traveling between Long Beach California and Ensenada Mexico! Note the sunshines late January!

Boot-Camp Graduation

Adam graduated from Boot-Camp on January 29th. He is still in Oklahoma. He started his AIT on Monday, February 2nd. This training will last about 7 weeks. He hopes to come home for a while after he completes AIT, before he goes to his first duty station.
