My mom and dad were married Dec. 16th, 1977. 
Dad had just graduated high school and mom was starting her junior year. Two years later I was born.
I weighed 7lbs 5oz and was 18 inches long. My mother would KILL me for putting this picture on here. That is what happens when you become a mother, you have shots of yourself you don't like!
My mother and me when I was around 5 months old. Of course I feel old when I look at this picture since mom was sporting those "huge" glasses.
I know I look like mom...of course I look alot like dad to. When I was 16 months old my mom and dad welcomed my little brother Jamie into the family.
Jamie was born on March 17, 1981 (St. Patty's Day). He was 8lbs 5 oz and 21 inches long.
Jamie looks JUST like my mom even down to the nose. Minus the blood hair which has changed since this picture. Mom continued to stay home with us kids while my father worked to jobs to make ends meet. When I started kindergarten and my little brother was in headstart, my mother decided to go to work. She found something that she LOOOVED to do and that was working with flowers and plants. She continued to work at Raines Plant Farm till they went out of business.
This is our family now. Man how we have grown. Mom no longer works and is raising her 8 year old granddaughter. She has started all over again and loves every minute of it. She has 5 grandchildren and loves them dearly. Her and my dad will celebrate their 31st wedding anniversary. We love you mom and want to tell you what a wonderful mother you have been to us!!
