On your left, you will see my oldest insane child. A girl child, as you can see, named Randi. Randi is 24 years old, available (for those interested, I will provide e-mail address) and living in West Lafayette, IN. |
 |
And here you will find my youngest daughter, Celeste. She is probably the most normal of all my children (scary to think of this as the most normal, I know). Celeste is 22, lives in West Lafayette, and is, also, available (the same applies here as for her sister in regards to e-mail!) |
 |
Now for the lucky student!! This is Bradley. He is 16 years old and unattached (girls, can you believe that?) He has the cutest dimple. Yes, dimple. He only has one. Of course, you can't see it in this picture but it is adorable! |
 |
Here we have the three jokers of the family! Like I have to tell you that. You're not blind, you can see for yourself. These are my two girls and my niece, Amy. Amy is in the Air Force and is stationed in Monterey, California. She was home for Christmas. They hadn't seen each other for 5 whole months! |
 |
Okay, this one really proves what I have been saying all along! This was a holiday, Thanksgiving, I think. The family was gathered at my house to celebrate. Out comes the camera, as usual. And they all act normal!! Well, normal for them. Including my oldest niece, Megan. She is the one sticking out her tongue and trying to get away! Celeste is hiding in the dark doorway. Randi is going the opposite way of Megan trying to avoid another picture. It looks like Bradley was trying to fly away. |
 |
"My buddy, my buddy, where ever I go, she goes!" This is my buddy, April, and me. The pic was taken on Halloween at work. April is the hunter, I am the Braves baseball player. |
| This is my favorite sister in the whole wide world. Okay, she is my only sister but, if I had more than one, she would be my favorite. Her name is Vene (pronounced Vinny). Our mother had unique taste in names. Thank goodness, my father made sure that I had a normal name that people could pronounce without instructions. Anyway, Vene is my best friend, confidant and partner in crime. We have moved, more than once, across the country just to be near each other! Vene is a joker with a heart as big as anyone that I know. I want to be just like her when (and if) I ever grow up. |
| Now, this is Dave. He is going to be my brother-in-law!! That is, if he can ever get used to this strange family! He is originally from Oxford, England. He and my sis, Vene, met on the internet in chat, fell in love, and now they are going to get married!! Isn't that a sweet love story!! |
 |
Megan, at least you could take off those sunglasses long enough to take a picture!!! But seriously, this is Megan, my oldest niece. She lives in Columbus, IN, about 12 miles from Hope and works in the Mall. She has tried other jobs but just loves working in the mall. A true shopper at heart!! |
| Attention! Okay, at ease. Airman Amy reporting for duty. Amy is my neice. She is in the Air Force, learning Korean in Monterey, CA. |
 |
This is a more recent pic of Amy. She is home on leave! |
| This, ladies and gentlemen, is Princess Britt of Shamrock Castle! Also known as Brittany Michelle Shadoan. Britt is my great-niece! Yes, I am too young to be a great-aunt but this is one of two great-nieces. Unfortunately, I didn't have film for my camera the day I met Mindy, great-niece #2. Britt is 2 years old and lives in South Carolina. |
| Now this is Gampah. Well, that's what Britt calls him anyway. I call him Jimm, as does most of the world! Jimm is my big brother! He is the best brother a girl could ask for. Have I ever told you the story about when he got his license? Well, I was only 8 when he got his license. He used to take me out riding around town with him!! Can you believe that? And even though he lives in South Carolina, we are still close! |
| And this happy little thing is Mindy, great niece #2!!! Gampah and Nana finally sent me a picture of her so she can be included in my homepage! Isn't she just about the happiest and sweetest little thing you would ever want to meet? Mindy just turned 1 year old and lives in South Carolina with her mommy and daddy, Donna and Steve. |
