HE and SHE! George and Nellieanna ~ our wedding December 28, 1985. Of course - now you may know that he's gone. There is an enormous empty place where he was. Perhaps I'm even closer to both of our families, even those I hadn't gotten to know well before. Time moves on! And so did we! We were out with friends in 2007 - That Christmas was George's last one with his son and family - During 2008, he grew less healthy, but his bright aura pervaded - Since then, after Sept. 5, 2008, I've coped and tried to maintain his glow. It's the least I can do - bringing his spirit to his loved ones. This was during the 2009 holiday season. So here are some of "ours"~ HIS and HERS! We've both loved 'em & love them still-! They've been the apples of our eyes through their blossoming and changes and throughout our living our lives among them! This page is for our progeny and to reminisce their stages and ages. Since making the page several years ago, many changes and additions have occurred! With growing youngsters and shifts in families, it's inevitable! The page has been updated several times, but it's never enough to keep up with the chanages in all our lives. Even so, now, in early 2010 I'm attempting once again to bring it more up-to-date! Here is George's eldest son, George, Jr. & his family several yeats ago.

My daughter, Dyane ~~ An outdoor girl A glamour girl, too Now her daughters are growing up & she's going to many weddings and birthings of her own grandchildren! Dyane's eldest, my Carla - in 2009. .. and as a youngster ~ Carla always glows with her pretty red hair, blue eyes and fair skin! I designed and made the blue dresses for her and her Barbie- Christmas, 1987. As a baby, wearing a dress her Granny Annie, who's beaming, made for her! I loved sewing for my girls! Now Carla's the mom of two lovely children of her own, my precious great-grandchildren, Bryana & Aaron - here with their father, Bruce. She and the children have visited me several times. Aaron and Bryana - and they've grown! They're still growing! At ages 10 & 9! They are as bright and sweet as they are pretty! Granny Annie, Aaron, Carla, Bryana & George - during a March, 2006 visit here in Dallas! Much more recently - they visited several times, this was during their 2009 spring break: This was during that trip. Carla was claiming her laptop while Aaron waited for it. Note his shoes. He was 13. So were his shoes' size. Also note the painting on the wall which he made for me! Their Granny Annie loves them! Carla . . . We've had such lovely visits! Love you, sweet girl! So now they're 14 and 13. Here ae their recent school pix: _ As you see, he's quite an althlete. Carla's sister Kasey, my friend and a woman in her own right! At 6, I suggested she could color her world in bright colors! She's always a quick study - so she applied it! Now she loves being Auntie for her niece and nephews. She's always teaching them new things to try. She's quite talented and is achieving her education on & offline while she works it in with accompanying her husband on cross-country jaunts. She's in a dress I designed and made for her here. She was bubbly at 11! Carla spent the summer here with us and kept me company while I designed and made the dresses for my three girls for the occasion of Dyane's quaint wedding which was set in a restored frontier village, Spring Mill, Indiana in 1988.
