CROSBY SIBLING GET-TO-GETHER!!

We decided a few months ago to all get together at Dave and Mary's in Logandale, NV and go through all of their Dad's files that have been waiting since 1992!! We planned a fun weekend, May 21st-23rd, staying at Casa Blanca in Mesquite, NV and going to Tuacahn in St. George one night. We had to leave Wed. morning so we could spend a day doing a few things at Roosevelt on the way. LaVerl had left a bag of fish guts there when he and Ron had gone fishing last week and he was worried about the smell!! It turns out that Lisa and Barry went to the lake last weekend and sweet Barry took care of it!!!!  Lisa said it was awful!!! The smell was horrendous!!! There were maggots everywhere! She doesn't even know what he did with them, but when we got there we saw no signs of any dead fish anywhere!!  We owe Barry big time!!

We met up with Rick and Paula and J'net and Bryan in Kingman. We ate a Denny's.

We all met again at CasaBlanca!

 Later we ate at the Seafood and Prime Rib Buffet!! Yummy!



The next morning we went to Peggy Sue's for breakfast. A really fun place with all kinds of 50's decor!! And good food.

  We relaxed and played cards and then LaVerl and I went to the a car show that was going on at the CasaBlanca! They had some really cool  cars!!

 

Then it was time to head to St. George so we could all go see 'Beauty and the Beast' at the amazing Tuachan outdoor theater! We grabbed a quick bite at In/Out burger, then stopped at Tami's to get coats for everyone! The weather had turned cold and none of us brought coats!!

 

TUACAHN IS AMAZING!

We've been to several shows, but we all thought that Beauty and the Beast was the best yet!!


This is the stage with the beautiful red rock mountain behind it.



Sunday we spent in Logandale, after going to church, the siblings started going through their Dad's files.

Lots of filing cabinets to go through! They got through a few of them!

                                           Hard at work!

 
Then for Sunday dinner we all went over to Karlina's and Percy's. He made us some great food. 

Aunt Mary invited Tami, Ryne and kids to come over!

Adlee had so much fun with Evelyn and Ava, cousins she didn't know she even had! Later we celebrated Jackson's birthday.



It was good to spend time with LaVerl's brothers and sister and of course Mary and Paula. We ate lots of good food, saw some great entertainment, and renewed family relationships!

Mother's Day and time with my MOM!

I feel pretty lucky to be the Mother of 7 wonderful, talented,  good and faithful kids. They were all really sweet to me this Mother's Day! I got to talk to all of them on the phone and they made me feel like I was a pretty good Mom, when in reality, I probably wasn't that great!

But I am BLESSED to have them! Tami posted these very old pictures!

I got some flowers....
Luann made this amazing pop-up flower card!
I got some new clothes....
Each flower on this sweatshirt stands for the month each of my kids were born in!

And then I bought and planted lots of flowers!

 
But first I had to clean out my flower beds! We hauled out 6 wheel barrow loads of old soil and put in new mulch, fertilizer and sand.
It was lots of work, but hopefully now I can grow pretty flowers!

Then the next weekend I got to spend time with MY MOM. My cousin Kathy brought Aunt Nita, Mom's baby sister to come spend a week.



Sonja picked me up Sunday morning and we spent 2 days visiting and having a great time with Mom and her sister and my cousin Kathy. I am also blessed to have the best mom ever!!
