FamilyFest 2010



Made a last minute trip to the husband's home town of Sanger this past weekend. Lots of family stuff going on. Here was the low down.

1. Went to visit our Step Mom Faith to get her mind off a few things.

2. Went to visit our Grandma and Grandpa (the hubby's grandparents) because it was their 61st Anniversary! Can you believe 61 years? The hubby and I will be in our nineties if we make 61 years. The hubby's grandparents hosted a lunch at Harry's in Reedley. I found out two things: The tri-tip sandwich is yummy and next time I am checking out the spaghetti because over half the people ordered it. Above: Is Great Grandma June with her great grandson, Clayton. It was nice to catch up with all of the hubby's family whom I normally talk to on FaceBook but don't get to see very much.

3. Went to visit Morris, Brian's dad to wish him a very happy birthday!

We had a really good time hanging out with everyone. I was especially happy to make the following discovery during our trip: hot Cheetos with Jalapeno cheese is really good. Seems it's the favorite snack of choice for the teens these days. Who knew? Everyone seems to be doing good. The Rusca's got a new MAC so all the kiddies that come over have fun playing with the different apps. My nephew Clayton is getting bigger and bigger and still likes the Pokemon. Faith and Morris' dog, Andy seems to be doing okay after an emergency room trip due to a swallowed toothpick in an appetizer. They are preparing for another Disney World trip, a China trip and an Egypt trip. So jealous! Like always, on the way out, I left something behind at Rosemary's....this time my new plates!! Argh. At least I didn't break a jar of honey on their front porch this time.

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of
