Mom at 80 with Family

We celebrated my Mother's 80th Birthday on June 23rd, 2007. We are so happy that she is still with us and able to be out for her big birthday bash.

Mom in the lilac outfit, is surrounded by her sister Helen, brother Homer Jr., and his daughter Diana. So great that three siblings remain of the original 10 Craig brothers and sisters.

My sister Nancy and her husband Chia Shan were present prior to leaving for a trip to Taiwan where she is teaching ESL classes, and her husband is visiting his family and former college claassmates there for the month of July.

Mom and her grandkids - some of which she helped raise and who still call her both Mom and Grandma. She has given much love and life to these kids - my oldest brother Michael's family.

Rachael and Michaele' are two fantastic granddaughter to Mom. Rachael fixed Grandma's hair and Michaele' helped get Mom to the church and back for her 80th birthday party.

Michael and Janice Hughes - Mom's oldest son - my brother attended the party. It is always good to have the family together. I appreciate all of my family.

Farm House Renovation

Right now we are working on landscaping the farm house which we have been renovating for several years. Progress is slow but we are enjoying making the old house a home. The porch roof will be two stories tall with colums, and the bricks are for the porch floor. We are also working on a brick sidewalk out to the barnyard.
