Retirement

After a day of cleaning drywall dust and painting I was ready to relax. So it was off to my cousin Rosie's retirement party. Rosie spent over thirty years in the education profession first being a teacher then a principal. She's hoping to spend part of her retirement in a RV travelling to dog shows with her miniature poodles and Jack Russel. It was great seeing all of the cousins, their kids and grand kids though I did have to ask "who does that kid belong to" a number of times.

Rosie and Robert, the youngest brother. Robert and Boudy did an excellent job of "roasting" Rosie.


Rosie with her retirement present --- that's a stuffed black poodle sitting in a bath tub. We all chipped in so she could buy a "dog wash".



Rosie and "the aunts", my mom and Tante To


The kids were having a great time. Why is it that whenever a kid sees a grassy hill they want to roll down it? I know I did way back when.
