agosto



Well, Agosto is over and not even one post made it-- 

HERE.

Back in my elementary school years, I used to attend

 summer school every other year.

During those years they offered short classes in

French & Spanish.

I am not sure why, but I really liked learning the 

months of the year in Spanish.

Maybe it was the way the words rolled off of my

tongue... the way the letter R sounded--

the way J's made the "who" sound. 

I thought they all sounded beautiful.

And after all of these years the Spanish

months of the year have stuck with me.

This month of Agosto brought some memorable moments.

I added these sentimental times to my memory bank

and locked the vault.

First-- our baby granddaughter's turned 18 months old.

 How cute are they?!

Second-- we enjoyed a trip to beautiful Lake Tahoe 

with very special friends.

We also went to the Donner Memorial Park in Truckee.

We visited the museum and saw artifacts from the fateful

voyage through the snowy Sierra Nevada's, so many years ago.

 

 Third-- We became empty nester's.

(I am still trying to get used to this one)

 

And--thirty-thirdly...

Yes, you heard that one right.

Keith and I celebrated our 33rd wedding anniversary!

We are so thankful to our Lord for being 

right beside us every step of the way.

The evening of el 23 de Agosto--

 

We spent watching the sun go down on our beautiful

Southern California Coast.

So, we now say adios to Agosto

and

hola to Septiembre.
