Shutterfly

Are you kidding? I love Shutterfly and have been a member since 2003. My life is documented in pictures at http://www.shutterfly.com/. I have oodles of photo albums to show for it. I'd much rather purchase a compact, beautiful photo book than scrapbook because it takes so little room to store them. In fact, I found some lovely, fancy boxes that I put on my bookshelves with the photo books inside. I have always received excellent service from Shutterfly and I love the quality of their product. Shutterfly's share sites are wonderful too. You can customize and post your family pictures to share with your family and friends. I have a share site for my sisters that has been great fun. You can see my share site at: http://newellfamily1.shutterfly.com/.

This Month's Happenings

February
On February 3, along with our good friends Burt and Barb, Dick and I headed to Laughlin, NV for some BIG fun.

Our first stop was to visit my brother, Rick and his girl friend, Sandy in Mojave, AZ. His mobile home is located east of Needles, CA, on the other side of the Colorado River. Since Dick and I hadn't visited Rick at his home in many years, I was thrilled to be there. Rick is such a caring, good man, father, son, and brother. He has learned that he has COPD caused by being exposed to asbestos in the Navy. He has been trying to get a handle on it, making many long trips to the VA Hospital. Thankfully, Rick has Sandy as an advocate for him. She is a force to be reckoned with! I know they are on the right road so they can have a good retirement.

We stayed at the River Palms Casino. Dick quickly made his way to the Let It Ride table. When winning was not in the cards, he would find a slot machine. Burt, Barb, and I were the three amigos. We had lots of fun winning on the craps table. We played a little roulette and dabbled with the slot machines. We had a fun dinner at Joes Crab Shack on the river.

Christy, Chas, and Logan are coming to Whittier to visit us on February 19th. I've been trying to think of something fun to do, but have yet to come up with a really good idea. Logan is starting to get to the age where he would like to play on equipment. I noticed La Mirada Park have some fun play equipment that he might like. Wendy and I found that Descanso Gardens have a delightful little choo choo train that we can all ride on. We'll see if that fits in.

January
We celebrated our 39th wedding anniversary.
