Friday Fotos...

 


As usual, of late, I don't have any new pictures to share.  BUT... both of my grandkids have birthdays in October.  Tristan's was the first week and Lauren's is next week, so in honor of their birthdays, I will feature my precious grandkids today...  Tristan turned 27 and Lauren will be 34.  Time goes by quickly.

Lauren and Tristan's mom is Kathy (she and Joey divorced years ago).  Kathy took photos of the kids at the beach, from behind them.  It was something she liked to do.  The first picture is one of her photos.  The second one is a painting I did from the picture to give to Kathy one year for Christmas.  (I am blessed to have a good relationship with Kathy and her husband, Jim.)




                                      

Joe's mom with Tristan.


We had lots of fun with the kids when they were younger.  
This was at Disney, I think.  Might have been Cypress Gardens.


A favorite of mine.  Kathy took the photo and sent it to me.

Tristan's college graduation.  Two degrees, 
one in Economics and one in Engineering.
Southern Methodist University - SMU, in Texas.


Lauren's First Communion. Kathy made the dress!

Both kiddos.

Lauren and I just a couple of months ago.  
We are scheduled again for Nov. 11, coming up!





Lauren loved VW Bugs so she had to pose in front of this one 
in the Museum parking lot.  She came to our house every summer
for two weeks and went to Summer Art Camp at the Museum.



Lauren's college graduation, from Monmouth University. Her degree is in Communications.

I love this photo!


Joe also loved his grandkids.





Thanks for looking!  I enjoyed looking through the hundreds of photos 
I have of these dear people!!


Peace and Hugs!
I love my family!

  7. Oh, I love this trip down memory lane! (You make me want to do the same thing sometime.) That beach scene you painted is wonderful; I know Kathy treasures it.
