A Visit with Cousin Janet in Hemet!!

Cousin Janet has moved again. This time she ended up in Hemet. She actually has a nice home in a very nice neighborhood. She has been busy painting and hanging her pictures up all over her home. She invited us out for lunch a couple of weeks ago when Cousin Annabell was down for a visit from Oregon. She dug out some old picture albums and here is a picture of my Grandpa Cress with my Cousin George and I. The picture looks like it was taken in El Monte in front of their home. It certainly brought back great memories.


Here is Cousin Anabel, me, Cousin Janet and my dad.


Another picture of the cousins. We had a great time visiting that day.

Axton's Blessing

On March 1, 2009, Axton Karl Wiley received a name and blessing in our church. Starlyn's parents came in from Hawaii and we came in from down south. Axton was very excited to get his name. By the way, Karl is the name of his Great Grandpa Cresmer, who is my dad. Great Grandpa wasn't able to make the trip, but he will see little Axton at Easter time.



Surrounded by grandma's love. Axton's blessing outfit was a gift from Grandma Paulette and his blanket was crocheted by Grandma Carol (me). This blanket was quite a challenge. In fact, it really should have about four more rows of edging on it, but somehow the stitches were not coming out quite right. So after a conseltation with the parents we decided that one row of lace was really better for a little boy. It really did turn out beautiful. So with his satin outfit and his blanket he was really styling!!!! Grandma's love you!!

A SAD DAY FOR PAPA!!!

Here is Papa crying, his Cadillac has died!!! May it rest in peace!


Momma says," Yea, we are finally getting rid of the money pit!"


What a Hybird?? Are you sure you want to try one of these new fangled cars???


Well, that was it! We couldn't believe the quiet ride, the power that a 4 cylinder has and the gas mileage that we would get. 40 around town and 38 on the road. Bye, bye gas pumps!!!



I can truly say, we love our Camary Hybird!!! Now we are a two Toyota family!!
Happy in Toyota Land!!!
These pictures are taken outisde of Jeff and Star's apartment in Monterey. This is the second trip that the Camary has made to Monterey.
A funny story. When we got rid of the Cadillac, I told Jeff that it would probably end up being a pimp car somewhere. Well guess what, about a two weeks ago, Jeff gets a citation in the mail on the Cadillac from the city of Compton!!! What did I tell you!! By the way, Carmax took care of the citation as the new owner registration had basically crossed in the mail. So Cadillac is bumping down in Compton!! Bump.. bump!!
