Category: Birthdays and Anniversaries

Once in four years, we can celebrate our official anniversary – because it is on Leap Day.

We had a great time together at newly built Durango Resort, a part of Station Casinos in Las Vegas.

What a beautiful place it is!! Highly recommended!

We are not gamblers and do not even know how to play any of the machines…. yet, we gave it a try and won a whopping $1 dollar 🙂 Woo hoo!

We were also able to try two (2) restaurants on our lists – Pier 215 and Baguette Cafe, near Durango Resort. – Both of them are great place to eat and the atmosphere is comfortable and welcoming. Highly recommended as well 🙂

We were hungry so we did not even remember to take any pictures at Pier 215…. Oh well, it is good excuse to go there again!

This year, I had to go to office for work on my birthday.

Co-workers made it very special with a cake, bagels, chicken wings, Spanish baked goods, and handmade l’ai from Joyce! 🙂

Rob’s father’s 80th birthday party was held in Dallas Fort Worth.

It was a first time meeting with Rob’s father, and visiting the area for me!

Everyone was so nice and we had a great time.

On the way to Airport, we were able to visit Dealey Plaza – where President Kennedy was assassinated.

It was very interesting to see the actual location after seeing the footage so many times.

Thank you so much for these beautiful flowers for our Valentine’s Day!
I also received a small bag of Hershey’s Kisses from our neighbor.
I am very fortunate to have thoughtful husband and neighbor🙏♥️

5 years ago today Teal-Blue-Sky texted The-Dude-Abides from match.com to setup a meeting at the local Starbucks.  That may be the only time I’ve ever been inside our local Starbucks. It was a nice day and after coffee was done we took a long walk down on the railroad tunnel trail down by Lake Mead.  As it was very close to Valentines Day, Tomoko brought me a box of chocolate covered strawberries.  These all melted into a pool sitting in the car and solidified into a giant single block in the fridge later that night.

We have been talking and texting every single day since and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

As a business model, Match.com lost two paying customers for this successful match.

It has been a while since all of us have been together in the same room.  Not by choice but we have always lived far apart from each other. Everyone is happy and healthy after all these years.

Somebody turned 80 last week.  All the siblings met for the day and had a fancy dinner and cake afterwards.  It was raining hard and the roof was leaking inside.

The Usual Six Gangs (Christine, Ray, Taylor, Jose, Rob and I) ventured out to the newest hotel in Las Vegas, Resort World Las Vegas for Christine’s Birthday.

This mega Casino Hotel was built after Stardust Resort and Casino, which was imploded in 2007 – and you can still see the replica of original famous Stardust sign inside of the hotel.

We had fun dining at Famous Foods Street Eats (Fancy food court at Resort World), trying out different types of cuisine!

Happy Birthday to TayTay!  We gathered at Jjanga @ Fort Apache on 08/07/2022.  Thank you for a great time with a lots of laugh with yummy food!

Birthday weekend was very nice; no stress, just serenity, and great conversation with my handsome husband Rob and good friends.

I truly appreciate everyone’s love and kindness.

Carol is going to have an adventure very soon; and I cannot wait to hear all about it once she settles to a new life with her daughter’s family (Tomm will follow once he completes his work here).
