Back to Sandieland

On July 18, we went back to my high school reunion in Amarillo. What fun! We saw some of my friends from high school that I have not seen in decades! Here is a picture of my good friends from high school, the BCP. There were five of us. The four that were there: Kae, Mary Nelle, Jane, and Janis. Miss you Ginny! Thanks to Celeste, Marla, David, and the rest of our classmates in Amarillo for organizing the reunion. It brought back lots of memories. Once a Sandie, always a Sandie!

Eva and Michael

During our time in Amarillo, we visited my niece Eva and her husband Michael. They just bought a new house, and it is just great. That evening, we went out to dinner with them and my nephew Shelby. Sorry Shelby, I didn't get a picture of you!

Weekend in Amarillo

Kent and I went to my high school reunion over the weekend. We combined the trip with seeing my niece and nephew and seeing some of the sites around Amarillo. We went to the Cadillac Ranch, Panhandle History Museum in Canyon, Palo Duro Canyon (it's really beautiful!) and the Amarillo Botanical Gardens. On the way back home, we stopped at Groom, Texas to see the largest cross in America. Really impressive.

Fixing the Truck

On July 5, Kent was putting a gate on Clark's truck in preparation for his upcoming move. Samuel grabbed some tools and starting "helping" his Padron. I think he has a future with trucks. During the weekend, if he didn't see his grandfather, he would say, "Where is my friend Padron?"

Sweet Girl

Our sons and family came to visit us for July 4. What a great time, even though the rain cancelled out our traditional setting off fireworks. Clark and Danielle are looking at houses, and plan to move near us in less than a month. Yeah!! Here are some pictures of our baby granddaughter. She is one now, and stands with ease. She hasn't started taking steps on her own, but it is obvious that she will be doing that very soon. She is beginning to say some words. She said "mama" and "dada". She says "look" and points. She says "hi." On Saturday, she learned a new word, "Nana"!! How exciting is that? I am definitely her biggest fan.
