Familia

The last few days we've had the opportunity to spend lots of time with my family. We've had several gatherings, since some cousins were in town for my Uncle Travis's memorial service. I'm very lucky to have such a neat family. I constantly marvel at how much fun we can have just hanging out together talking & enjoying food and / or music. I'm already looking forward to the next gathering, in a few months, when we remember "the four brothers", or "los hnos" -- my dad and his 3 brothers. It's hard to believe that they're all gone now.


We met for dinner at Midway Molina, one of my Aunt Patty's favorite Mexican restaurants. When we got there, Steven said "Patty's in the emergency room. She's not going to make it." Matt said "At all?? Or just for dinner?" Pretty funny. Not funny that she broke her ankle, though. At least Steven & Judy took some food home for her.

Neil & Debbie were so nice to offer their house for 2 impromptu gatherings. Muchas gracias to the hosts with the most!
