Meet the rest of my family....

L-R: (brother)David, (stepmom)Gladys, Me, (brother)Ron & (brother)Jerry

First of all I have to mention that there were two family members missing that Jimmy & I didn't get to see, and that was my baby brother Gilbert & his wife Jenny. I hope to get to see them later on this year if all goes as planned.

My brothers & sister Diane are a barrel of laughs to be around and I never laughed so much in all of my life. I had forgotten how much fun it was to be around them all and it could become habit forming. And I even discovered that their wives are even funnier than they are! LOL. Yvonne really cracked me up when she wasn't busy taking care of grandchildren.

Jerry, (sister)Diane, Me, David.
Diane drove all the way in from California to see us.

Don't know who these two are...

Jo Lynn & Ron drove in from Arizona.

We went fishing at a lake in Williams, Arizona

Jimmy & Sara were the only two who caught
any fish.

We met his mom Stacey and his dad Tim briefly
before they left for St.Louis,
and I didn't get a picture of them.

Our trip West was so much fun that I can't begin to tell you all about it right now and will from time to time post more pictures and tell you about all of the things that Jimmy & I did with the family while out in Arizona, Nevada and YES Kentucky too. Jimmy even let me gamble away a whole dollar, but I lost it all at the slot machines. Oh well, we all can't be so lucky!

Did I mention that I rode my own bike all the way to Nevada and back? That was quite a feat for me and my shoulders are still just a tiny little bit sore.
