Shawn & Jane girlfriend reunion in California. It has been a LONG time since Shawn & I have seen each other so we had a lot to catch up on...including meeting each other's husbands. :-)
Shawn & I met when I first moved to Arizona. She was from Minnesota and I was from Iowa. We were both 21 & became fast friends..
We were goofy together!
We roller bladed, hiked, swam & traveled together.
Snorkeling in Hawaii!
22 year old super-models (so we thought)! hahaha. :-)
I love Shawn & I'm thankful we reconnected first through Facebook and now in person. Shawn has an 18 year old daughter, Kyra and a 10 year old boy, Isaiah. She and her husband Dave live in Redwood City & work with Street Life Ministries. It's a mission committed to bringing church, God & help to the homeless people in Redwood City as well as surrounding areas in The Bay.

A trip to the ocean for us.
It was a pretty day at Half Moon Bay!
Love this photo of Bob with his parents!
I was really happy here because I just ate 6 oysters on the 1/2 shelf. My favorite!
Lunch was at Miramar restaurant (left of Bob) with this view. Yay!
A walk on the beach...lovely.
Hello to our Johnson across the ocean!
I hope he'll dip his feet in the water here someday.
Thanks for a fun excursion to the beach, Pat & Bob.
We heart 1/2 Moon Bay!

California Christmas pics...
Rose & Marie gave us a recital on their guitar & keyboard. They recently started weekly lessons and already sound great! We also love hearing them sing together. Talented & beautiful nieces!
Let's play Mind Trap! Honestly this game was hard on my brain (LOL). Luckily I had smarties all around me. This was a good time after eating a delicious Christmas dinner at Chef Chuy's restaurant. It's a famous local place that's been around for years. Supper was delicious!! Thank you Pat & Bob for taking us out & for a wonderful Christmas gathering at home.
There were Christmas presents too. :-) Thank you Pat & Bob for this Pendleton wool blanket. It was an amazing surprise because this design was done by my nephew-in-law, Andrew (Janna's husband). A few years ago he painted this piece honoring the buffalo & Native Americans. His art was chosen by Pendleton to be one of their designs that year for a wool blanket. Thank you again, Pat & Bob for finding this along your travels. It's a very special gift!
Marie & Rose reading Penelope. The book was their Christmas gift from Bob & I. :-)
Maybe R & M will write & illustrate a book. They are great readers & they love to draw. Hmmmm!?
When we weren't Christmas-ing...Bob & Bob welded.
Bob & Bob took Tippy for walks.
Bob & Bob worked on puzzles. Pat did too but here she's discussing the puzzle flaw with Mary-Mia via the phone. :-) Pat & I also did a little shopping downtown Los Altos Hills (a favorite thing of mine). We also drove to Half Moon Bay on January 4th (those pics posted next). Thank you Pat & Bob for the other thoughtful gifts given to us. And thank you Mary-Mia & Rod...I can't wait to use the Shutterfly gift card to make a photo book.

Sibling Selfie.
Mary-Mia & Bob having fun. Christmas 2018.
Before selfies...hahaha.
Bob & Mary-Mia @ a luau! Christmas 1988?
Meneely family vacation in Hawaii.
If this photo IS from 1988... it might be a good idea to have a 30 year reunion in Hawaii this year. Meneely Christmas 2018!! :-)

My date for the night. :-) Tonight was also our anniversary of our engagement. At midnight (19 years ago) Bob proposed to me on the top of Camelback Mountain. I said "YES!" and then there were fireworks all around us above the city of Phoenix.
Our engagement & 2018 are 2 great reasons to celebrate!
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1... MIDNIGHT!!!!
Happy New Year!!
