Happy Birthday Mom!

Happy Birthday, Mom! I hope you have a wonderful day. Remember your birthday in July of 1989, when a six-month-old baby boy appeared on your doorstep to wish you a happy birthday? That was a fun day!

I love you mostest!

Old pics
















I found some old pictures with mother and Marguerite, and got some old pictures from Jody from The Yearling with old pictures of mother and my aunt Opal, daddy's youngest sister. Those pictures are from 1932. Not sure about the ones of Mother and Marguerite, or the one of Marguerite by herself. Anyway, I thought I would share them. My aunt Opal is next to mother in one or two pictures. She's not smiling. Anyway, thought y'all might like to see these.

Random thoughts




Hi, all! We had a great visit in Lubbock with Estelle and John last weekend. They're doing fine and are getting out and about. I had a couple of pictures to post, but for some reason my computer won't read my memory card from my camera. It always has before, so I don't know what the problem is. Hopefully I can get it resolved and then will post the pictures.
Hope this finds everyone well and happy. Candy, I want to hear about Alaska and what all y'all did up there. I'm still working on Rachel's baby blanket. Hopefully will finish it before the baby comes! Ha!
I hope we can make it back to Lubbock after it cools off some and maybe Vickie will join us! Hope springs eternal!!!
Love to all!
Suzy
ps - you can see that with Kaylee's help, I got this done. My pictures weren't on the card, but on the internal memory! Duh!!!!

Happy Father's Day!!


Yes, admit it, Celeste, you are one of those people who spends way too much time on the computer, far too many hours perusing Facebook - tsk, tsk. Ok, enough of the self-recrimination. One thing I did pick up on Facebook was a lovely posting about our dads being our heroes. Well, yes!! My daddy has always been my hero and I know he always will be. I'm also very grateful for all the other dads - our wonderful Grandaddy, Uncle Dan, Uncle John, Vernon, Uncle George and all the other great men our family is blessed to have in our bunch. Couldn't let the opportunity pass, either to say that I'm glad to be married to a wonderful dad, also - thank you, Chuck! Happy Father's Day to all!!

Happy Birthday, Steve

Happy Birthday to Steve, Happy Birthday to Steve, Happy Birthday Dear Granddad, Happy Birthday to Steve!

Steve and my Mom just reported in from Juneau, Alaska. They are enjoying 45 degree weather and a day of shopping. They'll be back on their cruise ship in a few hours where they will then enjoy quiet, a nap, a book, a snack, and maybe the swimming pool. So if you're wondering if Steve is enjoying his day, I think you can safely assume he is! It's a hard life, isn't it?!


Steve with his favorite grandson and his favorite dog.

To help Steve better enjoy his day, if you have a funny story about him to share please post a comment. Keep it clean people. [wink]

Hugs,

Rachel

Happy Birthday, Cathy!!

Happy Birthday to You!! Happy Birthday to You!! Well...just try to imagine me singing that. Oh, never mind - please don't! Your ears would ache for days - lol! Hope you will have a wonderful day - cake, ice cream - the whole bit. I always have to keep in mind also that Grandaddy would be 129 years old today - wow! Won't discuss how old the rest of us are. Have a great day, Cathy!

Happy Anniversary to Bula and John!

Fifty-nine years ago, Fay and Dan Cusenbary's baby girl, Estelle (aka Bula), boarded an east-bound train for Arlington, Virginia. Her soldier fiance, John, was stationed there and awaiting the arrival of his bride ("there's something about a man in uniform...").

And the rest, as they say, is history.

Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad! I love you mostest!!!

Happy Birthday, Amanda - Part 2


Seems like I just can't get the hang of making postings to this blog in a more timely manner, like in advance of my daughters' birthdays - ha!! If my cousins will pardon me again for taking advantage of this blog to wish Amanda a very happy day, I'd be most grateful. I couldn't let the chance go by to post some cute pictures, too - so Happy Birthday, Amanda!! You are my sweet girl! I think this photo from Christmas 1981 is a sweet preview of the wonderful mother that Amanda has grown up to be. I love you!

It's Amanda's Birthday

What are you doing on the computer? Get back on the beach. Have a great day!
Love, Candy

Favorite Reunion Memory

I'll go first...
ICE CREAM! Sitting on the freezer to give weight to the turn. We sat there till our little butts were frozen.

Who's next?
