Sam's Homecoming Party










Millie's brother, Sam came home to Houston for a visit last week. He wanted to see lots of family and friends, so sister Tina got busy and spread the word.

Friday night there was dinner at Cruz & Jeff's place in Conroe. Cousins Isa and Aurora had their own party while the "grown-ups" yucked it up in the next room as Sam held court. Can any place in the world beat California?


The next day we gathered in Millie's mom's back yard in Houston for barbecue and more friends and family. Cousin Becky gives her full attention.


Here Tina tries to butt in on Sean who is already butting in on Marguerite.
We all had a great time stuffing ourselves, catching up on the news, and laughing over old times. Let's do this again next year!

Happy Birthday Big Brother


Today is my very much older brother's birthday. I would give his age, but I don't know how to use numbers with scientific notation. Here is a photo taken at his BD party; one of the few in circulation of him standing without the use of a walker.
