Happy Birthday To The Original!

We've discussed previously on this blog that if you would like to see what I'll look like after a few years of wisdom that you should look no further than my Grandma. Call me Coleen Junior folks (some people already do so feel free to join the club). It is her Birthday today! As part of her birthday treat after a delicious lunch a Chiz's they drove to "The Valley" for a shake at Corner Drug with Dadio and Mama Berry.

Happy Birthday Grandma! I am happy and very grateful to be blessed with such beautiful and youthful genes!! :)

Enjoy Life More...

Warm or ice cold (I personally am a warm lover)!

After The First Two Days of Post Season Baseball...

YANKEES: 2 Games Twins: 0 Games!!!

Giants: 1 Game Braves: 0 Games! (I desire the Giants to make it to the WS so I can watch the Yankees LIVE obviously!)

Well done boys, well done!

I HEART POST SEASON BASEBALL! I HEART THE YANKEES!

My Stanford Soph Is Now A Stanford Senior!

JP is kind of a big deal! She spoke at Convocation tonight. She did wonderfully, delivering her address with finesse, spunk, and that engineering humor. She was beautiful, radiant in fact.

We also learned that hairspray is a modern miracle! ;)

And Jack Berry Thought He Raised A Democrat...

(Dadio himself emailed me this photo this morning)

After 28 years of marriage Dadio gave into the in-laws and is bleeding red it seems (case in point the tie and photo)

***True Story***

When Dadio was still just Ronnie Berry, dating Michelle Erickson (you know her as Mama Berry), he decided that he was in love. Obviously the next step was to "meet the parents". The four went out to lunch one day. Poncho Villa (the father of Mama Berry) asked Dadio just one question.

Poncho Villa: Are you a democrat or republican?

Dadio: (not too politically savvy at the age of 22) Well my Dad is a democrat, so...

Poncho Villa: Oh Hell

Somehow my Dadio sweet talked his way into that family even after that lunch and with a mother-in-law that embodies "Republican Woman of the Year" year in and year out it is no surprise he was so easily swayed...hehe
