I wish that I could say that I remember a lot of things about being a little kid........but the truth is I can't. I do have lots of memories from when I was in High School up until now. Some times I think back on my HS days and miss so many of my friends and the awesome memories and some of the not so awesome memories. I could write a book about those years. But instead I'm going to fast forward to what is happening now.
My life is good. I'm married to a good man,I live in a beautiful part of the USA, the children are all grown, Wayne and I have 7 grandchildren and we live a comfortable life. So life really is good!
Recently, something happened that made my life even better. Are you a Facebook user? I am and so very happy that I am. One night I decided to do a search for 4 young people that I have thought about many times through out the years. I found 3 of them and the fourth who is not on facebook sent me an email. These 4 young people are the long lost family that I have missed very much. Two are my brothers and 2 are my sisters. We do not share the same mother but we do share the same dad. I have not seen them since our fathers funeral. That was June 1st of 1986. Twenty three years is a long time not to see someone that you care very much about. Although we did not see one another more then 3 times in our lives,I did hear how they were doing from our father or their Mom via telephone or through letters. Unfortunately,I lost contact with them soon after our father passed away. In the back of my mind I had always hoped that one day we would meet again. Well we have.... just not in person not yet anyway. I hope one day in the not to distant future we will all get together.
Here are some photos that I found this past weekend and I would like to share them with my family, Friends and anyone who happens to stumble across my blog. I wish I had a lot of them but I don't.
Life is good and I feel truly blessed. Here are a few old photos. They were scanned in and not in the best condition. In person they look better.

Dad, Robert (brother), Me (the dork) and my sister Edwina.

Thanks for walking down memory lane with me Via a few photos. I wish that I had more photos from the past but I feel very fortunate to have these. Maybe if I look harder I just might find some more. I would love to make a scrapbook of my family. keep Smiling. :)
