Pictures from our last vacation, June 2009, to Destin, Fl. Wow makes me wish I was there!

Places I've Been! LA!

August 1979

Washington D.C. Vacation

This is my Grandmother and her sister's son. I'm guessing that the sister, her husband and the son and his family went to Washington D.C. to visit my Grandmother's brother who lived in D.C. or maybe just the nephew and his family took my Grandmother to D.C.


I'm guessing this as the date is August 1957 before my time.


Look at the shoes my Grandmother is wearing. My feet would kill me if I walked around on vacation in heels!

The next two pictures are my Grandmother, with nephew, wife and daughter.

Vacation 2009

We went on vacation last week to Destin,Fl. If you haven't been it is a beautiful place.

It was pretty hot down there so we used lots of sunscreen. One day we had jellies all over the beach, which wasn't too much fun. Someone said they were babies, I've never seen any that small so I guess they were babies. Thankfully when we started seeing them we were just about ready to leave. We got to the beach early that day. The first day we went later and the sand was SO HOT it burned your feet! It was Good to have a vacation!

Maybe some day on vacation,I'll find an alligator to pose with like my grandmother did. That would be a cute thing to have. Next trip I'll look for one. Already planning next vacation!

PICTURES!!!

I am so excited, I could hardly sleep! I have to keep going back to look at them, to make sure I didn't dream this. A couple of weeks ago I did a post about all the family pictures my Aunt Betty had. This was about the time a couple of my cousins decided to call the cousins in control and tell them the rest of us were coming out and tell them a date and time. They told them we wanted to talk about the estate. Well, yesterday was the day!

There was a stack of picture albums and small boxes, which they said was all of the pictures. I know how many pictures Aunt Betty had, several large plastic bins of pictures, a trunk full of pictures, and picture albums here and there in the house. I am thankful for the pictures which we were able to get, I just hate to be lied to.

There are some real treasures! Possible clue to a brick wall in the Newby family. I felt the only reason these pictures were there is because they didn't know who the people were. When I told them some of the stories which Aunt Betty told me they had never heard them.

I am so happy!! The first picture I had to scan was one of my Grandmother on vacation.
