Happy Valentine's Day

It's February 14, so happy Valentine's day everyone! It still seems so strange to me to say that without it following a happy birthday mom! But time does march on and you become accustomed to a new way of doing things. This is post is about nothing inpaticular just pictures that I came across that were nice memories, so I'm sharing. This first one is funny if you knew my mother as she very much so disliked shower games. I remember this shower was held at her house so she figured when it was game time she would just busy herself with something that had been "forgotten". She must have forgotten that Kymmie K was coming and Kymmie had other plans for her grandmother that day, she was going to play the game and blindfolded at that! I'm wonder now if she was ever forgiven for that . . .
This was the night of my graduation and dad's mom and brother, Mark along with his girlfriend. Liz, had come for the big event.


I believe this was Kym's second birthday. Mom always had to be right there seeing every one's new "pretties", and helping to try them out.
Every time we went to visit mom while we lived in Kent, the last thing mom would always say to me was make sure you bring the kids swim suits, they want to go in the hot tub.
This is another one of Kym's birthday's. I like this picture because Mikey has that long haired look going on :)
Awww, grandma must have picked out the most perfect gift, because she is getting a kiss from Kym!
Henry was one of the costumes Yeager's used a special events in the 70's, I believe it's Mike Copeland in the suit,And it's Kelly in the Snoopy Red Barron costume. I wished I had found pictures from when we would all get together and decorate the Yeager's float for the Ski to Sea parade, but I didn't so maybe next year.Here is one of us outside the San Diego Zoo when Mike was Stationed there during his stint in the Navy. Remember in one of my previous post how I said we went to other places in CA just never Disneyland?
Again, Happy Valentine's Day everyone
*sigh* one day I'll get used to this, I really will.

Mom and the Lotto

Oh, how mom loved the lottery. She liked the ones were you picked the numbers, but she loved to play the scratch tickets! It soon became a Christmas eve tradition, strange I know, but the kids had all out grown opening up pj's on Christmas eve so we had to have something to replace it, and mom chose scratch tickets. Here is Kym having a laugh about it and making a necklace out of it.
Everyone waiting to scratch their tickets . . .
Mom even bought them sometimes for birthdays, she taught Kevin well!
Another Christmas eve, look at her and Mark go.Mom loved to gamble. I remember her in Reno, she would stick some coins in a machine and then hop to another machine usually walking away with a cup full of coins. One time in Reno I remember her walking over to me with three cups full of quarters saying come on let's go, I think I broke the machine. I asked her what she was talking about, she said this all came out and then it stopped working. I asked her to show me the machine, turned out she had hit a big one and didn't realize that after 2000 coins an attendant had to finish the pay out. Once we moved to Las Vegas she loved making trips here. She'd be up bright and early wondering which casino we should start at that day. I truly miss those visits and all the playing we would do. Needless to say I think I will find one of her favorite machines on the 14th and put a few dollars in for the memories.

For Mikey

OK, finally I'm able to get some blogging done!! Here are some picture's of our recent visit to Terri and Hughes to visit the group from WA and to get in some pool time. It was a great time, Thanks for having us.
Raeann has turned into a little fish, I guess that's what 6-7 hours of pool time a day will do for a person. Kymmy K, getting in on the fun.

Cole in action!
