Tribute to Little George

All my siblings after George's funeral. What an amazing group of individuals that I am lucky enough to call my brother's & sister's!

It has been a while since I have posted anything. I just haven't felt myself. My oldest brother, George, passed away on May 11th. It has been a devastating blow to our family. He was the oldest of 11 children. We will miss him terribly!

Madison's 5th Grade Spring Picture

Cute huh? Too grown up!

Easter at the Tibbitts Home

Brian, Madison & I were lucky enough to spend the Easter holiday with our oldest daughter, Tabitha, Son-In-Law Kyle, and our adorable grand-children Hallie & Toby.

We dyed eggs, decorated Easter cookies, ate lots of great food, & had loads of fun.

Lunch in Palm Springs

Papa & Hallie

I think Brian misses playing softball with Mckenzie, so he is "grooming" Hallie. He is a great grandpa!

Newport Beach California

We were on our way to pick up Brian from Orange County airport. We decided to stop by the beach for a little while before he arrived. The kids loved it & we found a Starfish! What a treat! It was a little chilly for April, but it was a fun time.... I want to go back in the summer!

Disneyland Visit

Tabitha & I decided that we would go to Disneyland while I was in California. We had a blast! Here is a picture of us posing with "Cars."

Visit with Grandma Margie...

I took Hallie to visit my mom & her new puppy, Coco. What a great time we had!

Madison's Birthday #2

I forgot to add these pictures to Madison's birthday. A friend & I painted a voluptuous beach guy & girl for Tabitha's sixteenth birthday party. It has been in garage for all these years & Madison wanted to dust it off & bring it in the house & take a few pictures with her dad. Kind of cute!

Madison's 12th Birthday

We celebrated Madison's 12Th birthday over the weekend. I know it was a few days early (her real birthday is on St. Patrick's Day) because Mckenzie couldn't be here during the week. She wanted to invite her best friend Callie, & go bowling and eat Japanese food. So that's what we did.

Duck Beach, North Carolina

After 18 years in North Carolina, we decided it was time to go to the Outer Banks. Everyone says it is something to see. Now I believe them! We went to Duck Beach where Madison had the best time hunting for shells. It is different from California beaches.It took us about 3 hours to get there, but well worth the drive. Madison studied the North Carolina Light Houses last year in school, so it was fun for her to see them in person. The Wright Brother's museum was pretty neat as well. "First in Flight" is the quote on all NC license plates. The story of these two brother's who were driven to fly is amazing! Great trip!
